Cargo that was seized from the vessel
According to its official website, IMSAG Inc. and its affiliates provide International Maritime Technical & Administrative Support to the Cooperative Republic of Guyana.
But, MARAD said that since severing ties, it has notified all regional, and international bodies and organisations of the effective termination of all arrangements with IMSAG. It has also advised that registration certificates issued to vessels by IMSAG may not be valid.
“As a result, several vessels have been detained in various ports for false registration documents,” MARAD said.
The maritime body said, however, that it will actively monitor this incident and that it will “spare no effort in protecting the image of the Guyana flag.”
The vessel was due to arrive in Guyana from Senegal on january 28, based on some reports. Other reports from Senegal could not confirm the vessel’s final destination.
