    Im März 1942 wurde das Schiff von seiner Besatzung in Tandjong Priok (Hafen von Jakarta) versenkt, als Blockade, um die einfallenden japanischen Schiffe am Einlaufen in den Hafen zu hindern. Nach der Invasion wurde die Van Warwijk wieder flott gemacht und dann von den Japanern repariert und in Harugiku (Harukiku) Maru umbenannt. Die Harugiku Maru wurde zu einem der als „Höllenschiffe“ bekannten Schiffe.
