A Greek bulker hijacked by pirates seven months ago has been released, it has been confirmed.



TradeWinds reported on Friday that the release of Euroseas’ 72,100-dwt Eleni P (built 1997) was imminent after a ransom was delivered in the morning.



Pirates spent all of Friday counting the unspecified amount of cash and the vessel was eventually freed on Saturday, counter-piracy force EU NAVFOR wrote in a statement.
