In August 2010 OLIB G. was sold to Alang breakers.
On September 8th, while on a delivery voyage, she was hijacked at the Gulf of Aden by the Somali pirates.
Her crew of 18 - 15 Georgian and three Turks - spent a year and half in captivity in terrible conditions.
Finally the Government of Georgia paid a ransom of 3 million dollars and the crew was released on January 8, 2012.
The abandoned OLIB G. still lies on the Somali coast near Harardeene.
