A German-controlled cargo ship must pay a financial guarantee over a fuel oil spill off the port of Ceuta, a Spanish enclave in North Africa.
Spanish media said the port captain has detained the 15,300-dwt Tony Stark (built 1993) pending the payment of a €120,000 ($130,500) guarantee.
Named after Marvel’s Iron Man comics and film character, the Antigua & Barbuba-flagged vessel has to hand over €100,000 for the alleged pollution.
