Source: Press release from the Ministry of the Interior, Rural Areas and Integration and the State Police Office from October 22, 2020 at 3:28 p.m.
On October 21, 2020 around 5:00 a.m., an oil film was reported on the Kiel Canal (NOK) near the Landwehr ferry. The police enforcement officers deployed at the Kiel waterway police station (WSPR Kiel) could not find out any details on site at this time.
At daybreak, the oil film could then be seen. In total, an oil film had spread from Holtenau westward to Weiche Oldenbüttel (60 kilometers of canals). A tanker sailing under the flag of Singapore was identified as the suspected polluter.
The responsible waterways and shipping authorities ordered a ban on driving beyond the Oldenbüttel switch. The investigations on board confirmed the first suspicion. After consulting the public prosecutor in Kiel, a security deposit was ordered against the captain.
The control center of the water police in Cuxhaven was involved in the investigation. Employees of the State Office for Coastal Protection, National Park and Marine Protection (LKN SH) were alerted around 11:43 a.m.,
appeared on site and initiated the control measures via the Technical Relief Organization (THW) and the Rendsburg fire brigade. Since the pollution is extensive, 6 vehicles, 2 boats and 23 comrades from the Rendsburg fire brigade went to the deployment section.
While the fire brigade stopped the hole in the damaged vessel and the direct oil outflow, the other organizations took care of the direct intake of the oil. After 5 ½ hours the work for the Rendsburg fire brigade could be ended.
A technical review of the ship class was ordered through the Transport Trade Association - Ship Safety Department - in order to determine whether the ship is technically suitable for onward travel. The investigation continues.

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro on Thursday visited Health Minister General Eduardo Pazuello, who has COVID-19, and made his point that the disease is easy to recover quickly from with the help of the controversial drug chloroquine.
The two men chatted and joked without wearing masks in Pazuello's hotel room, seen in a video posted on social media by the president, who recovered from a bout of COVID-19 in July.
"This is another concrete case of someone who took chloroquine and it worked," Bolsonaro said. "This is an alternative, when doctors prescribe it."
