Sharjah24 – AFP: The Scottish trawler Cornelis Gert Jan, detained in France for a week for fishing more than two tonnes of scallops without a licence, leaves the port of Le Havre.
Commenting on this, Jondy Ward, the Captain of the Cornelis Gert Jan said, "We were just boarded, as standard, in the morning. And then everything went fine. And then they came back about five o'clock in the evening, saying that we were going to be detained. Our boat was not a European registered vessel which we had no idea about."
