If he objects to this, a re-arrest hearing will be held and the Russian embassy has requested to have staff present.

The Swedish Transport Agency has found serious safety deficiencies on board. The tanker Sea Owl I is also being held by Swedish authorities outside Trelleborg, near Caffa. The ship's captain is also in custody.

Both ships are suspected of having sailed under a false flag.
