India coronavirus: The stranded sailor yet to meet his daughter

Indian sailor Abhiram Oak is yet to meet his newborn baby daughter. Lockdown restrictions mean he is stuck on a ship, despite his contract ending in March.

He is one of thousands of Indian sailors in a similar situation. The government says it is trying to bring more of them home, but for now Mr Oak, and his daughter, are forced to wait.
