Indonesiske styrker forhindrer piratangreb

Indonesiske flådestyrker fik mandag befriet et Singaporeflaget skib, der var blevet kapret af pirater ud for Borneo. Ni formodede pirater blev tilbageholdt, mens 20 besætningsmedlemmer og en passager blev sat fri. Ingen var kommet noget til.

Piraterne angreb skibet med det formål at stjæle olie, som skulle overføres til et andet skib. Myndighederne fik mistanke om piratangrebet, da skibet pludselig forsvandt fra både AIS og radar og derefter dukkede op igen under et andet skibsnavn. Derfor sendte de et patruljeskib, som fik standset piraterne i deres forehavende.

Indonesien har været plaget af pirateri i årevis, men i den senere tid er angrebene begyndt at komme fra en ny kilde, nemlig den islamistiske militante gruppe Abu Sayyaf, der er begyndt at foretage kapringer og kidnapninger i indonesisk og malaysisk farvand. Mandagens angreb havde dog tilsyneladende ikke noget med Abu Sayyaf at gøre.

Indonesien, Malaysia og Philippinerne aftalte for nylig at foretage fælles patruljeringer for at standse de kidnapninger, som pirater har held til at gennemføre. Desuden anbefales skibe i området at sejle i konvoj i stedet for at sejle alene.

I 2015 var der på globalt plan i alt 246 hændelser med pirateri, og i alt blev 15 skibe kapret mod 21 i 2014. Sydøstasien stod i 2015 for de fleste tilfælde af pirateri.
