Spanish authorities detained a mega-yacht called "Crescent" docked in the port of Tarragona in Catalonia, the Transport Ministry said on Wednesday, while a police source told Reuters the $600mln vessel was thought to belong to Igor Sechin, the sanctioned chief executive of Russian oil giant Rosneft.
The 135-metre-long yacht, described by specialist publications as one of the biggest in the world, sails under a Caiman Island flag and arrived in Spain from Italy in November 2021, according to monitoring site Marine Traffic.
