Default 9M-FSL; flyGlobal or Biman Bangladesh Airlines? Stored or Operating?

Hi everyone. This has been bugging me for a while. Every now and then I would see a B773 pop up on 16right ADSB logs. It says its rego is 9M-FSL and that it is owned by flyGlobal and is traveling WMKK-NZAA-WMKK. This flight doesn't show up on FlightRadar24 nor Flightaware. It does however show up on ADSBexchange except, it shows up as being operated by Biman Bangladesh Airlines and flying an unknown route. I have also done some research on 9M-FSL and the info I found says that it was previously operated by Emirates as A6-EMM, It is now Currently owned by flyGlobal and its status is 'stored'.

Also, when it shows up on 16right ADSB logs, it is using the callsigns/flight numbers:
MAS145 - ?
MAS133 - WMKK-NZAA
MAS131 - WMKK-NZAA
MAS130 - NZAA-WMKK

FlyGlobal is a wet lease charter operator, so it would make sense that there is history of it operating flights for MAS or Biman.

However I've seen some mention in a 777 retirement thread on a.net that it hasn't flown since March. There is also a mention that it has been re-registered 2-RLBM and is being parted out - so perhaps if you've seen it pop up in ADS-B logs recently its ADS-B bits may be living on in another jet?

If your explaination is correct, that would mean the adsb bits still live in a MAS A330. All the callsigns ive seen this aircraft use is for Auckland to Kuala Lumpur or vice versa except for MAS145. MH A330s frequently fly over sydney on their way to auckland as well so if i could figure out a pattern, maybe i could figure out the rego of this MH A330

Ok, so i've figured out the pattern and so far, it seems like 9M-MTW is the one.
