And that's fairly normal with them, apparently.
So they dragged us over to the foredeck, searched us, took anything we had off us, apart from passports, and then loaded us into a rib and over onto this, like a big landing craft.
And where we were made, kneel down on the deck and hands behind our back, our hands on our head.
And if you glanced around the place, you were threatened.
