Captain of the Lifeline interrogated

The captain of the ship Lifeline, from the German aid organization Mission-Lifeline, was heard for the second time by the Maltese police on Thursday.

The research focuses on why the Lifeline crew did not transfer the migrants picked up by Libya to the Libyan Coast Guard, as demanded by the authorities. In addition, the question arose why the Lifeline is a Dutch flag, while the boat officially does not sail under that flag. According to the Dutch authorities, the ship is not registered in the designated land register.
