An RBD Armatori bulker has been detained in Malaysia after authorities accused it of anchoring illegally.
The Malay Mail cited the Malaysia Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) as saying it had held the 87,000-dwt RBD Italia (built 2010) near Pangkor Island on Thursday evening.
An MMEA spokesperson said the ship was anchored without the necessary documents.
“Our investigations found that the ship was registered in Italy and had 21 crew members on board, including the captain,” the spokesperson added.
