I told you I got people watching yew. Ok I accept your sincerity. Now let's
figure out how your folk can receive the items you shipped from Miami:
Now when did you ship them and what stevedores did you use. It may be safe
to say that if shipped from Miami, it will be either Maersk, Torm, or Zim
lines. More likely Maersk because I don't think the Danes and Israelis call at
Banjul port anylonger although they can accept shipments to Gambia and transfer
them, if they are RORO or containerized, to another shipping agency for
onward delivery to Gambia. With the professionalism of any of these lines and
insurance coverage, I doubt it is any of these lines. You will either recover
your items or their insured value.
Now if you used one of these shady-tree consolidators, it is more likely
your items have been sold in Tananarive and since your consolidator more than
likely did not pass insurance benefits to you, he/she was compensated on your
behalf and refuses to afford you the settlement. So he/she sold your items,
sends a claim to his/her insurance company and was paid for your "lost" items
again. In some occasions, it can get more complicated than that bordering on
funny. I can try to help you recover your items if you share with us who your
shipping agency or line was. Failing recovery, I can yield you their value.
Lemme know, Lemme know. I must say I am proud of you for sharing your thoughts
here with us. Did you ship around 2003? The reason I ask is because there is
a term limit of liability in the shipping and stevedore industry. But I think
I can still recover your items for you. I may have to send you to Rabat to
receive them though. I hope they weren't so valuable or perishable. Ask your
agent in Miami which line he used to ship your items and whether as an agent,
he is insured against delay and loss. Be careful of some of these agents.
Usually they will receive your items and tell you they will arrive in a month or
two. Well since they are consolidators, they may still be waiting for their
friggin container to get full before they actually manifest it to Banjul.
Generally agents are certified by the Port Authority and the US customs. But
some of these small timers can't pass muster with the customs so they use
another licensed agent for the manifest documentation at the port. Were your
items a container-full or break-bulk?
Alieu, I hate for some knucklehead agent to take advantage of you but
talking about it here will hopefully run the idiot out of business. Remember, you
should never have to worry about what happens to your items when you use a
legit agent. He is the one who should have been asking me the questions you had
asked. That's why I was baffled at first. Or maybe he sent your items by
barge. In which case you may have another six months to go. Don't worry be happe'.
I love you Alieu.
Haroun Masoud. You know our brother Karim is not pleased with you. Are you
gonna try to find out why he is not happy when he should be your bestest
friend? MQDT. Darbo. If Yahya will straighten out that port, you and I will not
have to worry about criminals stealing our marine and customs guards. Someone
told me they spotted Famara Faye in Algeria. He was bought from the ship by a
famous local family. This is very serious. AL Mutawakkil.

Darboe,
I was just curious because I shipped somethings to the Gambia through an
agent in Miami and it has been months and my folks still did not get them. I am
not being sarcastic and neither trying to be politically 'correct/incorrect"
here.
Anyway, thank you.

Never mind Alieu, You're not who I think you are. I'm still not pleased with
your behind but I'll let your questions be. They are valuable. The answers
are in the article. Sorry men. Try to talk more often so I'll not mistake
you
for someone else. You know the Sanyangs are my cousins so I don't wanna be
displeased with you. Carry on. You know my name. Send me private mail so I
can
share some ideas with you. Now go away.

Rogue ship breaks arrest London, 29 October 2003
The one that got away
Multi-million dollar cargoes are once again at risk of being stolen after a
ship operated by an organised group based in the Lebanon broke arrest from
Banjul, Gambia, in the early hours of 25th October 2003, warns ICC
International
Maritime Bureau (IMB).
CIUTA (IMO no.8030960) was one of at least two ships operating in the
Eastern
Mediterranean, North African and West African coasts, duping shippers out of
cargoes by offering bargain freight rates. Instead of discharging the
cargoes at their destinations, the ship s have been changing identity and
deviating
to other ports to illegally discharge the goods.
"It is all too easy at present for criminal vessels such as this to change
their identity, disappear and avoid the legal sanctions." said IMB's
director,
Captain Pottengal Mukundan. "Until the embossing of the IMO number on the
hull of the vessel becomes mandatory, it is extremely difficult to locate
and
seize the vessel in another port."
He added:"The marking of the IMO number visibly on the hull of the vessel is
part of the ISPS Code and will be phased in over the next few years, after
the Code comes into effect on 1st July 2004."
The first reported cargo theft by this group came to light in September 2002
when a 1969-built general cargo ship, LUCKY III loaded a steel cargo in
Istanbul and headed for Lagos, Nigeria. The ship subsequently deviated and
finished up illegally selling her cargo in Lattakia, Syria. In November
2002, the
same ship, having changed her name to STAR and flying the Tongan flag, was
chartered to take a consignment of polyethylene from Libya to Morocco. Once
again, she headed to Lattakia and discharged the cargo under false
documentation.
The IMB has learned that since leaving Lattakia, the ship has again changed
names.
In December 2002, PANCIU, a 1980-built general-cargo ship, flying the North
Korean flag, loaded a shipment of bagged cement in Alexandria, Egypt. The
shipment was intended for two consignees in Conakry, Guinea. Ship's identity
was
changed at sea to CIUTA and she deviated to Banjul, Gambia, where the cement
was sold to a local buyer. Fortunately, the ship was apprehended after an
alert local shipping agent in Banjul tipped off the IMB and the local
authorities. She was arrested under a court order of the Gambian Supreme
Court. Since
her arrest, two armed naval guards were stationed aboard 24-hours. The ship
however absconded in the early hours of 25 October 2003, with Mr Famara
Faye,
one of the guards, still onboard.
Given the previous history of the ship it is highly likely that CIUTA will
be
re-named, re-flagged and return to cargo theft operations.
