Redazione Ansa

(ANSA) - ROME, MAR 27 - The Louise Michel, an NGO-run migrant rescue boat funded by British street artist Banksy, was detained at Lampedusa Sunday on three charges including being overloaded and carrying out too many rescues, sources said Monday.
    It was also accused of fluting orders from Italian authorities.
    Three rescues carried out autonomously in the Libyan and Maltese Sar area, failure to comply with the Italian authorities' instructions for the port of Trapani and an excessive number of people on board, given that a maximum of 60 shipwrecked people could be loaded onto the ship are the three charges that led to the administrative detention notified to the captain of the ship Louise Michel, Beckert Reimar.
