2015年CRI 中国公布长江失事客轮调查进展

Chinese investigators¹ say they have gathered much evidence regarding the capsizing of the Eastern Star cruise ship on the Yangtze River that killed at least 434 people.

In its first detailed² report on the investigation³ since the disaster, the Chinese government is stressing it's a complex probe that demands scrupulous⁴ methods and simulations.

Premier⁵ Li Keqiang ordered the setup of a 60-strong investigation team on June 2, a day after the capsizing of the Eastern Star.

The team has been probing meteorological conditions at the time of the disaster, the structure and retrofitting of the ship, its fitness to sail, sailors' responsibilities, and shipping-safety supervision⁶ on the Yangtze River.

They are working on video footage and GPS data from devices recovered from the ship, as well as data from satellites, radar⁷ and ground-level monitors.

As the investigation continues, relatives of the victims of the shipwreck⁸ are now being allowed to retrieve⁹ their loved-one's belongings¹⁰.

They have been given access to the items at a funeral home in Jianli County, which is near the site of last week's disaster.

Xia Yanhai with Jianli's Civil Affairs Bureau says the process of cremating¹¹ the victims is also underway.

"The mortuary has received the bodies of 219 victims, of which 76 have been identified by their families. The families of 51 victims have agreed to have the victims' bodies cremated¹². 26 bodies have been cremated."

The ship has been moved around 10 kilometers upstream from where it capsized. There had been concern it might break apart if it was left in the water at the accident site.

Eight people remain missing. There were only 14 survivors¹³.
