TEHRAN, July 30-Government investigators said Monday Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, missing for four years, was likely steered off course deliberately over the Indian Ocean.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) -Government investigators said Monday Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, missing for four years, was likely steered off course deliberately over the Indian Ocean.
The Malaysian government made the remarks in its latest report on the MH370 investigation Monday.
The flight disappeared in March 2014 en route from Beijing to Kuala Lumpur. Most of the Boeing 777's wreckage has never been found.
The report said it's unlikely the plane would've experienced any system failure that would have taken it so far off course. Investigators said the plane was likely flown manually to wherever it crashed in the Indian Ocean.
"The analysis of the relevant aircraft systems ... does not suggest a mechanical problem with the aircraft," the report states.
The report did not make many definitive conclusions, but it did determine the plane was not on autopilot when it deviated from its flight path -- meaning someone on the flight deck was responsible.
"The turn back could not be attributed to an anomalous system," Kok Soo Chon, the investigator in charge of the MH370 safety investigation, said at a news conference Monday. "It has been established that the air turn back was done under manual control, not autopilot ... we cannot rule out unlawful interference by a third party."
