Malaysia's PDZ served with writ and warrant of arrest.

Malaysia's PDZ Holdings Bhd - the owner of Perkapalan Dai Zhun Sdn Bhd, which operates as PDZ Lines - confirmed on Wednesday that its container vessel, the PDZ Mewah, has been arrested by Dan-Bunkering (Singapore) Pte Ltd over the supply of marine fuel.

PDZ said it was served with a writ and a warrant of arrest on the PDZ Mewah on 24th January.

"The board is currently seeking legal advice and intends to take steps to defend the arrest of [the] vessel and any claims that may subsequently be filed," Bursa Malaysia-listed PDZ stated.

Built in 1993, the Malaysia-flagged PDZ Mewah has a deadweight tonnage (dwt) of 12,577 tons and a gross tonnage (grt) of 9,602 tons.

At the time of writing, shares in PDZ were trading at MYR 0.07, down 1 Malaysian sen on the previous day's closing price. The company has a market capitalization of MYR 60.852 million (USD 13.73 million) and a 52-week trading range of MYR 0.06 - MYR 0.14.
