Zodiac Maritime has reached a confidential out-of-court deal to resolve a legal dispute with a Bangladesh shipbreaker, who was claiming compensation for life-changing injuries sustained during the demolition of one of its ships.

Information has not been disclosed about the terms of the settlement or whether compensation has been paid by Zodiac Maritime.

As TradeWinds earlier reported, steel-cutter Mohamed Edris brought his claim to human rights law firm Leigh Day for the loss of a leg and other severe injuries sustained while demolishing the Zodiac Maritime-managed, 915-teu Eurus London (built 1992) in April 2015.
