TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - It has been a week since Captain Phillip Marthens, a New Zealand citizen Susi Air pilot, went missing. The captain and five passengers of Susi Air; Demanus Gwijangge, Minda Gwijangge, Pelenus Gwijangge, Meita Gwijangge, and Wetina W were on board a plane that was hijacked by members of the TPNPB-OPM led by Egianus Kogoya.

The plane was hijacked not long after landing at Apro Airfield, Tuesday 7 February 2023 at 06:17.

The Indonesian National Police chief, Gen. Listyo Sigit Prabowo, said that five passengers on the Susi Air plane were successfully evacuated, but the whereabouts of the pilot were not known. "We were able to secure all the passengers. None of them are being held hostage," he told reporters on February 8.

Authorities continue to find information about the Susi Air pilot's whereabouts. "A joint team from the Carstensz Peaceful Operation is currently carrying out a search and rescue operation," Listyo said.
