Subject: mv Oriental

Dear Natalie

The following from KSA re the referenced ship

I am afraid to say that there is tiny information on mv Oriental which I
received from the government officers.

The vessel had entered into the Pyeongtaek Port and been seized by the court
on 27 March, 2009. And she was released on 18 December, 2010.
They answered to me that during the period all of the seafarers were
repatriated.

I was not able to receive further information from them.

My best regards

Arthur
