The Vietnam Coast Guard on Monday (23 December) detained the tanker Yen Dinh 0025 in the seaport area of Vung Tau over suspicious activity, it said.
The testimony of the vessel’s Captain noted the ship to be transporting about 18,000 litres of diesel oil; however, he but could not produce invoices and documents proving the legality of the product.
The coast guard also noted the vessel did not possess a permit to leave the domestic port, and its crew members did not have necessary qualifications to handle the cargo.
As such, the authority issued a decision on custody of the vessel to conduct further investigation, verification, clarification and handling in accordance to the provisions of law.
The Yen Dinh 0025 was detained by the Vietnam Coast Guard about a year ago over unaccounted 120,000 litres of diesel oil.
