Three bodies have been recovered and nine victims are still missing after the collision off Mangalore of a CMA CGM containership and a fishing vessel earlier this week.
A company spokesman told TradeWinds the 10,106-teu APL Le Havre (built 2012) has not been detained and all crew remain on board.
The spokesman denied reports that the master is in custody, adding that nothing is known about how the expected casualty investigation will proceed.
