These bonus materials for The Ransom Drop point to public domain material including photo\u2019s, news media files and websites which readers of The Ransom Drop may find interesting. The image below of a real drop must have been leaked by one of the teams involved in a delivery project. (I know it wasn\u2019t me!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the issue evolved, such huge sums of cash changing hands was raising many eyebrows. Several potential changes in international law were proposed. These changes effectively banned the payment of ransom to pirates and hostages who were held at the time would have been trapped in limbo on the coast of Somalia. As it happened, the US signalling, combined with best management practices, resulted ultimately in enough disruption to break the business model. Now, there are only occasional attacks. As of 2021, the days of 25 or more ships being held offshore Somalia are well and truly over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the issue evolved, such huge sums of cash changing hands was raising many eyebrows. Several potential changes in international law were proposed. These changes effectively banned the payment of ransom to pirates and hostages who were held at the time would have been trapped in limbo on the coast of Somalia. As it happened, the US signalling, combined with best management practices, resulted ultimately in enough disruption to break the business model. Now, there are only occasional attacks. As of 2021, the days of 25 or more ships being held offshore Somalia are well and truly over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
