Cargo firm claims jets 鈥榓bandoned鈥 in Malaysia
A NEW Malaysian air cargo company said yesterday it is the owner of three jumbo jets parked for more than a year at the country’s main airport and that it was shocked by authorities’ claim that the owner could not be traced.
Malaysia’s airport operator on Monday took the unusual step of posting photos in two major newspapers of the three Boeing 747-200s. The notice warned the owners that the airport had the right to sell or dispose of the planes unless they were collected within 14 days.
Swift Air Cargo said it legally bought the planes in June and that it has since been in communication with Malaysia Airports Holdings, which has demand more documentation on the purchase.
“We are dumbfounded by Malaysia Airport’s move. Swift is the owner and we definitely have not forgotten the planes,” said its lawyer, Syed Amir Syakib Arslan.
In a brief statement, Malaysia Airports said the claim of ownership could not be satisfactorily verified at this point and that it has asked the owner for more information. It said the newspaper notice was a normal legal process for debt recovery.
Syed Amir said Swift has given the airport operator the sale and purchase agreement, a legal declaration from the previous Hong Kong owner of the planes on the sale as well as other original supporting documents to show ownership of the plane.
Swift is liable only for parking charges since June and not for previous dues, he said, adding it was willing to sit down and negotiate with the airport operator.
