They don't need to... and another nation's tanker isn't going to go down there to do it.

That is why the Australian Maritime Safety Authority has opened a formal investigation into it

They opened an investigation because someone claimed that heavy fuel was used. That doesn't mean that it was. This is the guy who manufactured a bullet so that he could look personally heroic and accuse the Japanese of trying to kill him... you really think anyone is going to belive him if he claims to have conveniently found evidence?

Pretending that SS is impartial and can be trusted to provide honest evidence is hilarious. Imagining that they even have someone on board who can tell the difference is an act of pure fantasy.
