The crew of a tanker bareboat chartered to Liberian-registered Ceto Shipping have arrested their ship in Singapore after claiming they have not been paid wages since the end of last December.

The 23 seafarers from Pakistan, Indonesia and the US took legal action against the 46,900-dwt product tanker Victor 1 (built 2004) in an effort to recoup the collective $187,000 say they are owed.
