Operator of missing ship says vessel hijacked


    MOSCOW (Reuters) - The operator of a merchant cargo ship that has disappeared in the Atlantic Ocean said Thursday it believed the vessel has been hijacked.

    "My view is that it is most likely that the vessel has been hijacked," said Viktor Matveyev, director of the Finnish company, Solchart, which operates the vessel.
