Oh yes, what a potential mess is brewing here. With Camerloon involved, anything is possible.
1. Who owns them. One would assume the former Burmese Government.
2. Cundall states he has a valid and current permit. Should be sound enough.
3. The Brooks character spots a windfall, and attempts to woo political favour?? Another Tory sleaze project afoot.
4. Is the law of salvage prudent here?? Not a lawyer so cannot answer.
5. Where there is muck there is brass.
6. And where there is brass, there is bound to be several hundred ponces.
