The Nigerian Navy has handed over two vessels and crew accused of crude oil theft to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
According to a statement on the social media page of the anti-graft agency, the two vessels, MT Platform and MV Caribbean Crest alongside a crew of 22 suspected oil thieves were handed over on Tuesday.
While the MV Caribbean Crest and her crew members were arrested in February at the Bonny Fairway Buoy with an unspecified quantity of stolen Petroleum Product suspected to be automotive gas oil, the MT Platform was intercepted on June 8, 2022, in the vicinity of the Bonny Anchorage for illegal dealing in petroleum products without a license.
