Background information:

The MV Tampa is a Norwegian cargo ship.

In August 2001, under Captain Arne Rinnan, a diplomatic dispute brewed between Australia, Norway, and Indonesia after Tampa had rescued 439 Afghans from a distressed fishing vessel in international waters. The Afghans wanted passage to nearby Christmas Island. The Australian government sought to prevent this by refusing Tampa entry into Australian waters, insisting on their disembarkment elsewhere, and deploying the SASR ( Australian Special Air Service Regiment)to board the ship. At the time of the incident, Tampa carried $20 million AUD worth of cargo and 27 crew.( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MV_Tampa)
