*** Weekly Piracy Report:
233-14 07.12.2014: 0315 LT: Posn: 01:31N – 104:35E, Around 17nm ENE of Tanjung Punggai, Johor, Malaysia.
Around 20 armed pirates in a boat approached a product tanker underway. Of these five pirates managed to board the tanker using ladders and by cutting through the razor wire. The 2/O noticed the pirates armed with small arms and raised the alarm, activated SSAS and broadcast an alert message to all ships in the vicinity. Crew members locked the access doors to the bridge and accommodation and the non-essential crew mustered in the citadel. Upon hearing the alarm and seeing the crew alertness, the pirates escaped empty handed in their boat.
232-14 07.12.2014: 0530 LT: Posn: 02:15.15N – 104:49.30E, Around 20nm SE of Pulau Aur, Johor, Malaysia.
Seven armed pirates boarded an Asphalt tanker underway from Singapore to Vietnam. They checked the cargo, stole crew properties and left the vessel. After the pirates left the vessel the crew found the third engineer bleeding from his head. It appeared that he had been shot. The Master reported the incident to POCC Singapore and requested for medical assistance. A medical evacuation was carried out and the third engineer was admitted to a hospital where the doctors pronounced him dead. The remaining crew are safe and the vessel was boarded by the authorities for investigation.

“Oh, it was wild and weird and wan, and ever in camp o’ nights
We would watch and watch the silver dance of the mystic Northern Lights.
And soft they danced from the Polar sky and swept in primrose haze;
And swift they pranced with their silver feet, and pierced with a blinding blaze.
They danced a cotillion in the sky; they were rose and silver shod;
It was not good for the eyes of man — ‘Twas a sight for the eyes of God.”
