If the alleged flights actually land in Norway, how are they illegal?

Unlike a man-o’war, a commercial vessel does not retain its national sovereignty in a foreign port, and is subject to the laws of the land. If a person is being held without charges, or without the ability to show habeas corpus or its legal equivalent, then the case is one of unlawful detention or perhaps kidnapping.

Most countries reserve the right to inspect cargo in all ports as well as craft to insure public safety and laws.
