The Grimaldi Group has confirmed that one of its car carriers has not been seized by an armed rebel faction in embattled Libya.
The Italian company confirmed to TradeWinds Thursday that its 62,134-gt car carrier Grande Baltimora (2017) sailed to and from the north African country and was not taken by the Libyan National Army (LNA) as reported.
"It discharged its cargo (cars and other rolling units) in Bengasi on Sunday and left the following day with destination Turkey," company spokesman Paul Kyprianou said in an email.
