Shell Tanker ‘Capulonix’
By Alfred & John Donovan
An article on an alleged murder and cover-up, which allegedly took place on the Shell tanker ‘Capulnix’ many years ago, was republished yesterday on a Dutch website.
It therefore seem appropriate to republish our own article on the subject.
In 1974 it was reported that a Shell employee, Leo Rapmund (36), a crewmember on the Shell tanker, Capulonix, had gone missing, presumed lost overboard.
Over two decades later Rapmunds family was contacted by a fellow crewmember at the time of the tragedy who wanted to clear his conscience about his knowledge of what really happened. Basically he revealed that Leo Rapmund had been murdered and there were many eyewitnesses to the crime.
