Ship bound for Ctg port stranded in Andaman Sea

A Chittagong Port-bound container vessel got stranded in the Andaman Sea near Myanmar coast last night as its engine went out of order.
The Indonesian flagged vessel MV Gladys carrying 869 TEUs (twenty feet equivalent units) sailed from Port Kelang in Malaysia on July 26 and was scheduled to berth at Chittagong Port Tuesday.
Later, the schedule was re-fixed for August 1 as the vessel's engine had been giving trouble since Tuesday afternoon, said Kazi Shahid Mahmud, deputy general manager of the ship's local agent Trident Shipping Lines.
