Xia Hong-bo, who is being held on suspicion of negligence, was quoted as saying he was unable to avoid the collision despite efforts to do so, media says.<\/p>\n

The 13 crewmembers of the Jia Hui, bound for South Korea, were unhurt, Kyodo adds.<\/p>\n

The Chinese embassy in Japan said Mr Xia was arrested late on Sunday and the embassy said it has asked Japan to investigate the incident and provide a lawyer for Mr Xia,media reports.<\/p>\n

On Friday, Japan’s coast guard sent boats and helicopters to search for the missing crew. The bodies of the five crew members were recovered.<\/p>\n

At the time, a spokesman for the coast guard said they were unsure of what caused the collision.<\/p>\n
