Win More Shipping has lodged an application with the High Court of Hong Kong to seek a judicial review into the actions of the Hong Kong flag following the detention of the Lighthouse Winmore (built 2014) in South Korea for alleged sanctions violations.
The 16,000-dwt tanker was held at the port of Yeosu in November 2017, accused of the ship-to-ship transfer of oil to the North Korean-flag ship Sam Jong II (built 1975) in violation of sanctions imposed by the United Nations.
