Flight MH370: plane crashed in 'apparent suicide mission' -- TheWeek.co.uk

INVESTIGATORS believe the missing Malaysia Airlines plane crashed into the sea in an apparent suicide mission, according to inside sources.

Malaysian officials yesterday confirmed that Flight MH370 had crashed into the southern Indian Ocean with no survivors. An official source has since told the Daily Telegraph that investigators believe it was "a deliberate act by someone on board who had to have had the detailed knowledge to do what was done".

An analysis of the flight's routing, signalling and communications shows that it was flown "in a rational way". Investigators do not believe a malfunction or fire was capable of causing the aircraft to disable its communication system and veer wildly off course on a seven-hour flight into the sea.

However, nothing has so far pointed to a motive. Foreign intelligence agencies have conducted two rounds of checks on the passengers and found nothing suspicious, while an intensive police investigation into the two prime suspects – pilot Zaharie Ahmad Shah and co-pilot Fariq Abdul Hamid – has returned no leads.
