Norwegian authorities have released the Silver Dania, a Norwegian cargo ship that was carrying an all-Russian crew.
The vessel was seized earlier, on Friday, on suspicion of damaging a Baltic Sea telecoms cable. "It is suspected that the ship has been involved in serious damage to a fiber cable in the Baltic Sea between Latvia and Sweden," the local police had said in a statement, News.Az reports citing foreign media.
However, Tromsoe police have now confirmed that there is no evidence linking the ship to sabotage.
