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.
