Sellner, a right wing active in several European countries, chartered in 2017 a ship that was trying to prevent NGO boats from saving immigrants and refugees adrift.

The Ultras ship was detained in Cyprus in the summer of 2017 and the captain was arrested and then released to have Sri Lankan illegal refugees on board and forged documents.

Finally, the ship and her crew from Sri Lanka were abandoned by the right-wing extremists and the Red Cross had to help them in Barcelona in October 2017 because they were without resources or fuel.
