Use of language is an interesting thing. What is referred to as “being
held hostage” might be referred to as being kept in quarantine. “Ransom”
might be referred to as fines levied for laws broken.

A competent captain should not be confused by the voyage described.

American citizens should be familiar with strict border controls resulting
in stiff penalties.
