Former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott has claimed Malaysia secretly concluded that the pilot at the helm of doomed flight MH370 committed mass murder-suicide.
Mr
Abbott sensationally revealed he was told by those at the 'very top
levels' of the Malaysian government just days after the tragedy that
Captain Zaharie Shah was a suicidal killer, rather than their being any
fault with the aircraft.
Publicly,
the Malaysian government's investigation remained inconclusive, but
privately, Mr Abbott claimed those at the top knew the true explanation
within a week of its disappearance, but he fears search teams were never
informed.
Flight MH370 became one of the world's
greatest aviation mysteries when it vanished on its way from Kuala
Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, 2014 carrying 239 persons (227 passengers + 12 crew) - including
six Australians - who were never seen again.
