MV Iran Deyanat
MV ''Iran Deyanat'' is an Iranian ship (owned and operated by the Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines) that was hijacked in the Gulf of Aden by 40 pirates with Kalashnikovs and RPGs on August 21, 2008. The crew of the ship numbered 29: a Pakistani captain, 14 Iranians including an engineer, 3 Indians, 2 Filipinos, and 10 Croatians.〔(Mystery surrounds hijacked Iranian ship ) Nick Grace, Long War Journal. Accessed October 1, 2008.〕 The ship was freed on October 10, and the crew was unharmed.〔(Indian crew of hijacked ship freed unharmed by Somali pirates ), Press Trust of India via The Indian Express. October 10, 2008.〕 The ship went underway bound to Oman and then to its final destination at Rotterdam.〔(Iranian ships step up precautions in Gulf of Aden ), October 14, 2008. Reuters Africa.

The ship had declared as cargo minerals and industrial products such as iron ore,〔(Mysterious Cargo Aboard Iranian Ship Seized by Pirates Raises WMD Concerns ) Joseph Abrams, Fox News.com. September 30, 2008.〕 but Somali negotiators are alleged to have said that the true cargo included arms and chemical weapons.〔 The ''Deyanat'' had departed from China with the purported intent of selling its cargo in Germany, but Somali officials say that the ship was truly headed to Eritrea; in addition, the ship's arrival in the Gulf of Aden was supposedly "suspiciously early."〔 "Many of us ran out on the deck. We saw a group of men in two tiny speedboats close to the ship. The ship’s radar had failed to pick them up. The men were firing in the air," crew member Jeevan Kiran D’Souza said. "There were 16 of them. They threw a ladder fitted with grappling hooks over the side of the ship and clambered aboard. They stormed all cabins and herded the entire crew into a small room, and told the captain to cut the engine."〔(‘At gunpoint, we survived on bread and two cups of water’ ) Shaju Philip, Indian Express. Accessed October 20, 2008.〕 After the hijackers took control of the ship, they used the ''Deyanat'' to tow their boats along. They shuttled between Reassban, Reassaaf, and other locations (purportedly to evade rival pirate groups) before meeting their boss, "Abdul Hakeem,"〔 and finally mooring off the coast of Eyl in Somalia—which is allegedly the base of a crime syndicate.〔(Pirates die strangely after taking Iranian ship ) The Times of South Africa. Andrew Donaldson, September 28, 2008.〕 In fact, multiple other pirated ships were moored near the ''Deyanat''.〔 The number of pirates guarding the ship included 50 on shore and 50 on board.
