The federal government in Mogadishu issued a public statement on July 23, saying it “categorically denounces the "hijacking and aggression against the Sea World, demanding the “immediate and unconditional release of the vessel,” while calling the actions of Puntland an “unlawful operation.” Puntland contended that the 'Sea World' was “loitering for two days” off the coast, raising suspicions. It apprehended the vessel, acting on intelligence and fears after a group of young fishermen had already boarded it. After being contacted by Somali traders who claimed ownership of the cargo, it moved the ship to the port of Bossaso for an investigation.
