Also on Thursday, the IPMO stated that they would soon provide details of the ship's release.
Maersk Tigris operator Ricksmers Shipmanagement has reported that it has yet to confirm that the ship has been released, the BBC explains.
Iranian Navy patrol ship personnel boarded the Maersk Tigris, which had reportedly been traveling through Iranian territorial waters in the Strait of Hormuz, on April 28, stating that the vessel had been seized on the basis of a court decision over unpaid debts to an Iranian plaintiff from March 16, 2015.
Hamid Reza Jahanian, managing director of Pars Talayieh, had earlier told Fars News Agency that the ship would be released upon payment of damages to the Iranian company, amounting to $3.6 million US in compensation.
