A tanker that was seized unlawfully by an armed militia in Cameroon was released on Tuesday.
The 26 crew onboard the 106,000-dwt Barents Sea (built 2000) are safe and unharmed, the vessel’s manager Eastern Pacific Shipping said on Wednesday.
The tanker was seized last week by DSC Marine, a local charterer, and local Cameroonian military forces armed with AK-47 submachine guns.
