French authorities have detained the tanker DF Peak off Réunion and taken its master into custody, according to The Maritime Executive's 15 October report.

The publisher says a French boarding team checked the vessel's flag documents and authorities found that it lacked valid registration. The report links the detention to that inspection.

Prosecutors were reported to have lifted restrictions on crew movements. The vessel remained at anchor near Saint-Denis in the publisher's account.
