Finland afviser sag om kabelhærværk mod Eagle S-besætning

En finsk domstol har afvist tiltalen mod kaptajn og to officerer fra tankskibet Eagle S, som var anklaget for at have beskadiget undersøisk infrastruktur i Den Finske Bugt i december 2024, skriver Splash.

Ifølge anklagemyndigheden havde skibet trukket sit anker 90 km hen over havbunden og derved ødelagt Estlink 2-el-kablet mellem Finland og Estland samt fire datakabler. Besætningen nægtede skyld og forklarede, at ankeret var faldet på grund af tekniske fejl.

Retten fastslog, at skaderne skete i internationalt farvand, og at finsk straffelov derfor ikke kunne anvendes. Dermed bortfaldt også erstatningskravene på millioner af euro.

Sagen var én af flere hændelser med skader på kabler og rørledninger i Østersøen siden Ruslands invasion af Ukraine, hvilket har fået NATO til at øge overvågningen af regionens kritiske infrastruktur som et forsvar for den hybrid-krig, som er i gang mod Danmark og Europa fra Rusland.
