The mission by PL forces to rescue the vessel demonstrated not only the capacity of the Puntland police but also the speed at which an action could be conducted if motivated. The fact that the vessel was Somali owned undoubtedly influenced the decision. Sugar prices sky-rocketed after the news of the ships hijack as businessmen hoarded remaining stocks. The commodity is also frequently sent on to Ethiopia and Kenya by smugglers.
