The "Christopher" was arrested at Bronka Port in St. Petersburg, after a court ruling. https://www.dp.ru/a/2017/05/04/V_portu_Bronka_arestovan. The port operator, Company Fenix (Phoenix), sued the owner of the ship for berth damages caused when the ship allided with berth No.6 on Apr 6, and, according to the claimant, virtually destroyed the berth, which was in need of a total overhaul with an estimated damage at some $ 2,7 mil. The port and owner reached an out-of-court agreement on covering the losses. The vessel was impounded as a guarantee and left St. Petersburg on Apr 27. On May 5 the vessel was underway on the Northsea, en route to Antwerp.

The Antigua & Barbuda-flagged containership Christopher was put under detention on October 26 at Southampton and released three days later. http://worldmaritimenews.com/archives/205980/uk-detains-five-foreign-flagged-vessels-in-october-2016/
