NAIROBI, Nov 18 (Reuters) - A Saudi supertanker hijacked by pirates with a $100 million oil cargo in the largest ever such seizure has reached the coast of north Somalia, a regional maritime group said on Tuesday.
"Some people are saying they have spotted a huge vessel off Eyl. It must be the supertanker," Andrew Mwangura, coordinator of the East African Seafarers' Association, told Reuters, referring to a remote coastal village used by Somali pirates.
