Oceana - rescues immigrants off Gibraltar yesterday
GibraltarPANORAMA Thursday:
The cruise liner 'Oceana' sailed from Gibraltar today (Thursday) with six out of seven immigrants it had picked up off the French coast still onboard. The seven were on a boat which, according to the immigrants, had sailed from Algeria, from which country they claimed to be nationals. A doctor went onboard the liner when it arrived here today and one of the immigrants was certified to be 'very sick' and put in intensive care at the St Bernard's Hospital. His condition was described as 'critical'. The liner sailed away from Gibraltar today with six of the seven immigrants onboard.

The Herald : News: OTHER NEWS
Further report on the episode. Seems the one hospitalised has since died. Wonder if there will be problems for P&O as according to the article the international maritime organisation search and rescue conventions, people rescued at sea should be disembarked at the nearest place of safety.
