As the Shipping Company reported to PortNews IAA, the vessel was arrested in December 2008 in the Greek port Psahna for long-term debts to local enterprises Azoil and Vestoil.. Because of the precarious financial state of UDSC judicial formalities were settled only in January this year. Negotiations for the release of the vessel lasted more than a year, while the creditors were going to sell it by auction.
