More Plane Parts Wash Ashore As Malaysia PM Says Debris ‘Conclusively’ Belongs

“I am suspicious of Malaysia airlines because they have a track record of going back and forth of what they is true and not true”, said Jiang Hui, whose mother was on Flight 370.

Meanwhile, the French government in a statement said that a military aircraft would begin surveying the area around Reunion on Friday, along with helicopter and boat patrols and search teams on foot, BBC reported.

The confirmation by Malaysia that the piece of a plane’s wing found washed up on the French island of Reunion belongs to missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 is but a small part of the mystery.

Only hours before Mr Liow made the comments some relatives of the 239 people on board the Boeing 777 that disappeared early on March 8 last year said they were infuriated about differing statements from Malaysia and France about the wing part, known as a flaperon.

Some family members of passengers criticize officials’ announcements.

Malaysia’s prime minister has said the new findings “conclusively confirmed” that the piece of wreckage was from the Boeing 777 missing since the spring of 2014.

Najib would also want to stamp his authority on the search, which Malaysia oversees, Tapsell said, rather than allow France to dominate attention through its leading role in examining the wing fragment.

Investigators believe that someone may have deliberately switched off the aircraft’s transponder, diverted it off course over the Indian Ocean and deliberately crashed into the sea.

“We shall mobilize all local means at our disposal, which are normally used in such operations, and which are usable for this type of search”, he said.

“We suspect that the plane wreckage could be faked”, said Liu Kun, whose younger brother was on the plane.

The Malaysian government has previously been accused of covering up the disaster with false reports, however PM Najib has said that investigations will continue.

“There is a strong assumption that the discovered piece came from MH370 plane”, Sorain said.

Who has said what about the flaperon?

Liow said he understood family members wanted answers about what happened to the passengers on board.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) was established by the Federal Government of Nigeria in May 1976 to gather and distribute news on Nigeria and cover events of interest to Nigeria at the global level for the benefit of the Nigerian Media and the Public.

Australia, which sent an official to France to help examine the flaperon, has said the find will not affect its sonar search of a 120,000-square-kilometer (46,000-square- mile) expanse of seabed more than 4,000 kilometers (2,500 miles) east of Reunion Island.

Now investigators will reportedly turn their focus to the area around Reunion Island to determine if the remainder of the flight is buried somewhere beneath the Indian Ocean. But, despite the efforts of 26 nations and the largest search in aviation history, from the South China Sea to the Indian Ocean, the plane could not be located.
