KUALA LUMPUR: A Malaysian-registered tanker that disappeared a week ago in a suspected hijacking has been detected in Cambodian waters with a new name and fresh coat of paint, Malaysia’s navy chief was quoted saying Thursday.

Abdul Aziz Jaafar said Malaysian and Australian aircraft were shadowing the MT Orkim Harmony, which vanished last Thursday off the southeastern Malaysian state of Johor along with its crew of 22.

“We have found the vessel and RMAF (Malaysian air force), MMEA (Malaysian coast guard) and RAAF (Australian air force) aircraft are tailing it from the air,” he was quoted as saying by the state-run Bernama news agency.
