Warrant of arrest set aside because plaintiff failed to satisfy statutory conditions for admiralty in rem jurisdiction: plaintiff did not prove the defendant was the charterer (second limb of s12B(4)(b)) and did not identify specific agreements relating to hire as required by s12A(2)(h); absent those factual foundations the court lacked jurisdiction in rem.
