RAS AL KHAIMAH — The three children, who reportedly tried to escape from Ethiopia by hiding in a cargo ship’s engine room last month, finally reached the Mina Al Saqr port in Ras Al Khaimah yesterday morning.

The boys, whose nationalities are not known as they do not possess any identification documents, were handed over to the UAE Coast Guards in Ras Al Khaimah who have detained them for interrogation.

Officials from the Coast Guards did not divulge any details about the children citing security reasons.
The children would be handed over to the police who will coordinate with the immigration offices and the Ethiopian Consulate to trace their nationalities and arrange the necessary repatriation formalities.
