Pirater overdriver ofte løsesummen

Piraterne praler med store løsesummer - men i virkeligheden kan de være langt lavere, og det ved forhandlerne. Det siger redaktøren af netavisen Somalia Report, som dagligt om gidselsituationen i området ud for Afrikas Horn

”Man kan aldrig rigtigt stole på, hvad piraterne fortæller”, siger Somalia Reports redaktør, Michael Logan, til Ritzau.

Logan siger til nyhedsbureauet, at en løsesum på tre millioner dollar - der er nævnt i forbindelse med frigivelsen af de syv danske sejlere - er meget høj i forhold til, hvad der er betalt for andre private sejlergidsler.

Direktør i sikkerhedsfirmaet Risk Intelligence, Hans Tino Hansen, kender også til piraternes overdrivelser.

”De overdriver let med både 20, 30 og måske også 50 procent. De vil fremstå som succesfulde, og store millionbeløb sælger jo godt i pressen”, siger Hans Tino Hansen til nyhedsbureauet.
