British aircraft caused German ship to scuttle December 1939

Hi guys

In December 1939, off the coast of Angola, the German merchantman 'Adolf Leonhart' was scuttled following interception by a British aircraft.

Can anyone provide any information please? Was the aircraft involved RAF/FAA/SAAF? What was the date?

Cheers
Brian
