The United States has filed a lawsuit to seize a cargo of oil it says came from Iran rather than Iraq, as stated on the bill of lading, and contravenes US terrorism regulations.
The lawsuit filed with the US District of Colombia on Tuesday alleges that Iran sought to mask the origin of the oil by transferring it to several vessels before it ended up aboard the Liberian-flagged Achilleas tanker destined for China.

Philippine police said Wednesday they had arrested a U.S. citizen and three Filipino women on suspicion of operating a cybersex ring in Angeles, a city north of Manila.
Those arrested were Easton Scot Sanderson, 33, an American, and Filipinas Reinalyn Robles, 22, Jann Arielle Mondejar, 23, and Shirley Martinez, 22, national police chief Gen. Debold Sinas said.
Two victims, whose identities were withheld, were also rescued during a raid at a condominium, the police said in a report.
“The [Philippine National Police] is going after traffickers who prey on women for sexual exploitation. We urge the public to report to us similar illegal activities for immediate police intervention,” Sinas said.
