. cruising nigeria focus on retrieving bodies after a boat accident on the niger river. rescue efforts have come to an ends and former british prime minister boys johnston is found by in these to have knowing the misled parliament about the parties are uncovered, locked down the coast, guards in greece. i recovered the bodies of me. 78 people who drowned off the southern coast after the fishing boat sank. many are still on accounted for. survivors say the boat was carrying up to $700.00 migrants from countries including pakistan, each of 10, syria, 3 people suspected of human trafficking under investigation. race has declared 3 days of national morning. let's go to, i have to john romulus, who's in kind of law to greece, where survivors are being brought ashore. talk to us about the latest john,
5:02 pm
have any more survivors or bodies been found? and unfortunately, none of the new survivors of bodies have been found on thursday. there is a search on going on the high seas. there's at least one coast guard vessel and one frigate and several helicopters, and several merchant ships who were there all day yesterday. still involved in that search and rescue. there is a desperate search for uh, for survivors and even for buddies. because if there are as many as 650 or 700 or more uh, dead people. uh then it is going to be very important for me as far as he's here to be able to identify them and to notify their loved ones. the other process that really has overtaken no authority is here today. on sure is the interviews with the survivors. the interrogation, if you like, and the cross referencing of information. none of the interpreters but we've tried
5:03 pm
to talk so you have agreed to speak to us or to any other journalist as far as i'm aware. and i think the reason is that there is a forensic examination of the evidence for who among these roughly 104 survivors in greece might be among the human traffickers on board the vessel. i think it is a high priority for the great government to find such people if they are alive and to bring charges against them. and to show that there is a criminal dimension to this human trafficking. because up until now, all the focus has been on whether the storage has have done their job properly saving or not saving people on the high seas. if, as we heard from once a volume today, the average tickets on board this vessel of death was $4.00 to $5000.00 and hundreds of people are on board. and the value of this one passage was an excess of $3000000.00. that's a major business,
5:04 pm
and the european union has said it wants cracked down on these organized crime rings that there is a criminal di mention. you say, john, but they are also the victims, the survivors, most of those have been rescued. i understand all men, what have you heard about their condition and, and the sort of help they getting from greek authorities. well 1st of all, just the fact that the man suggests that the women and children who were on board with down below decks and simply didn't have a chance to survive bass at least as was these men who survived happen telling interpreters and they had been relaying that to report as here unofficially. but we've also heard that from aid workers who, who's been working with them all day, wednesday and today. so it seems that uh, that's the reason why they all roll man. as you say, that condition was not good when they were both on the show on wednesday they
5:05 pm
weren't the state of shock. some of them fainted on the dock. the a may have told us that 32 of them had been taken to hospital 5. have since been released. all of them are going to make it there are no seriously or critically ill among the people among them. but psychologically, it's a different story. they are probably all related in some way to people who have been lost and see it isn't clear if all of them are aware that uh, they've lost their loved ones it's, it's not clear because even relatives of those last who arriving here today, looking for loved ones onto allowed to talk to them. so there's no cross referencing of information among the relatives and the friends of those who, who have dies. it's going to take a very long time for all of that information to filter through even the identities of the survivors, their only now being established for because they were in too great and state of shock, right to be certainly interrogated on wednesday. john,
