A small cargoship has "jumped detention" in Ireland after five months of its enforced port stay.
The 340-dwt Evora (built 1969) has been banned from Paris Memorandum of Understanding on Port State Control (Paris MOU) ports as a result.
The organisation said the ship was detained in the port of Tarrea Pier, County Galway, on 12 September.
It absconded at some time between 17 and 20 January, without complying with the conditions determined by the Marine Survey Office in Ireland.
