Topics covered over the two-day gathering spanned from basics of legal systems, theoretical aspects of relevant maritime legislation, to practical aspects of investigation and prosecution of maritime crimes. Other subjects included pirate’s approach to the ships, merchant vessel best practices, and challenges in evidence handling and detention on board.
Real-case scenarios of maritime incidents were presented to the participants who were invited to actively engage in discussions and confront ideas on the best ways of applying legal procedures.
At the end of the closing ceremony, EUCAP Nestor donated copies of the Somali Penal Code and relevant Somali Maritime Legislation digital copies on USB sticks to all participants.
