(UTV|COLOMBO) – Police in Myanmar are searching a large rusty container ship for clues after it was spotted by fishermen mysteriously drifting near the region of Yangon.

“There were no sailors or goods on the vessel,” the Yangon Police said.
Authorities and Navy personnel boarded the ship to investigate after it ran aground, the Police added.
In a statement posted on Facebook, the Yangon Police said the ship was “Stranded on the beach [and it was] bearing an Indonesian flag”
