1982 Orissa 57, the High Courts took an unduly
restrictive view of the courts' admiralty jurisdiction by
limiting it to what was permitted by the Admiralty Court
Act, 1861 and the Colonial Courts of Admiralty Act,
1890. This was, in our view, an unjustified abdication of
jurisdiction and a self-assumed fetter on competence to
render justice.

M.V. Mariner Iv, A Foreign Flag Vessel ... vs Videsh Sanchar Nigam Ltd. on 15 December, 1997
The judgment in The African Eagle
considers various statues, letters patent, High Court Rules, various
judgments of the Apex Court (m.v. Elisabeth and m.v. Sea Success)
as well as of this Hon'ble Court (11The Mariner IV vs. Videsh Sanchar
Nigam Limited) and English law. The Court held the freight
independently of vessel cannot be arrested. The arrest of bunker
issue was left open as the Defendants had agreed to secure the
claim upto the value of the bunker then available on board on without
prejudice basis. The suit later was dismissed on other grounds. This
judgment it was submitted on behalf of Defendant No.2 that there is
no in rem jurisdiction to arrest bunkers. Although the judgment
decided only the issue of arrest of freight, in my view it applies in
equal measure to arrest of bunkers. Bunkers cannot be arrested
independently of or with the ship as separate maritime property.
