Piratangreb ved Nigeria rapporteres ikke

Der sker langt flere piratangreb ud for Nigerias kyst end hidtil antaget. Det Internationale Maritime Bureau vurderer, at mange piratangreb i farvandet aldrig bliver rapporteres, og at det reelle omfang måske overstiger antallet af angreb ved Somalia.

Officielt blev der rapporteret om 40 angreb ud for Nigerias kyst i 2008. Men direktøren for Det Internationale Maritime Bureau, Michael Howlett vurderer, at det faktiske tal nærmere var 150 eller 200.

"Vi har brug for rederne giver sig til kende i denne sag", siger Michael Howlett.

BIMCO chief security officer, Giles Noakes, bekræfter, at situationen i Guinea-bugten er så slemt som i Adenbugten. Men han tilføjer, at det er vanskeligt at lave en retvisende opgørelse, da angrebene varierer meget i omfang. Der sker alt lige fra væbnet røveri til egentlige kapringer.

Giles Noakes vurderer, at mange angreb ikke rapporteres, fordi det kan føre til betydelige forsinkelser, hvis de lokale myndigheder skal undersøge en sag.

"Man skal være opmærksom på, at nogle af disse aktiviteter er udført af militante,« siger han.
