The Last Journey

The Tamaya 1 was supposed to bring its cargo to Dakar in Senegal, an African country located to the far north of Liberia. Unfortunately, all contact was cut when it was somewhere near the Gambia, a little south of the destination. They did not know how the ship reached Libera, though local authorities reported that some of the lifeboats had gone missing. However, they did not know the exact number of crewmen aboard the ship, so it was hard to draw a conclusion.

Negligence

One big problem when it came to investigating the fate of the Tamaya 1 was the negligence of the officers assigned to the case. It seems like they bungled the scene and the investigation. The police failed to show up right away when they heard about it. Apparently, some people looted and then vandalized the vessel. Eventually, they managed to cordon it off and come up with theories about what happened to the Tamaya 1.
