Mungkinkah MH370 diterbangkan ke Pakistan oleh perampas...

Adakah radar tunjuk MH370 ke Andaman...

Bukti daripada radar Tentera membayangkan kemungkinan pesawat MH370 yang hampir seminggu hilang, telah sengaja diterbangkan melintas Semenanjung Malaysia ke arah Kepulauan Andaman, lapor Reuters yang memetik sumber yang biasa dengan penyiasatan itu hari ini.

Dua sumber tu iberkata sebuah pesawat yang tidak dikenali yang penyiasat percaya ialah MH370, telah mengikuti laluan di antara titik laluan penerbangan - yang menunjukkan ia sedang diterbangkan oleh seseorang yang terlatih dalam bidang penerbangan - ketika kali terakhir ia diplotkan pada radar tentera di luar pantai barat laut negara ini.

Plot terakhir pada radar tentera membayangkan kemungkinan pesawat itu terbang ke arah Kepulauan Andaman di India, yang terletak di antara Laut Andaman dan Teluk Bengal, kata mereka.

Titik laluan adalah lokasi geografi, berdasarkan kiraan longitud dan latitud, yang membantu juruterbang sepanjang koridor udara.

Sumber ketiga yang biasa dengan penyiasatan itu berkata persoalannya semakin tertumpu kepada teori bahawa seseorang yang tahu menerbangkan pesawat itu telah sengaja mengubah haluan penerbangan, yang membawa 239 orang, beratus-ratus kilometer melencong dari kursus destinasi asalnya dari Kuala Lumpur ke Beijing.

"Apa yang kita boleh katakan ialah kemungkinan perbuatan sabotaj, dan begitu juga kemungkinan berlaku rampasan," kata sumber itu yang merupakan seorang pegawai kanan polis Malaysia.

Ketiga-tiga sumber itu yang enggan dinamakan kerana mereka tidak dibenarkan bercakap kepada media dan kerana sensitiviti siasatan.

Pegawai-pegawai di Kementerian Pengangkutan Malaysia, yang menjadi kontak rasmi maklumat mengenai penyiasatan itu, tidak membalas panggilan untuk mendapatkan komen.

Polis Malaysia sebelum ini berkata, mereka sedang menyiasat sama ada penumpang atau kru yang mempunyai masalah peribadi atau psikologi yang mungkin dapat memberi petunjuk terhadap misteri itu, bersama-sama dengan kemungkinan berlaku rampasan, sabotaj atau kegagalan mekanikal.

Komen oleh tiga sumber merupakan petunjuk jelas yang pertama bahawa perbuatan jenayah disyaki berlaku dan menjadi fokus siasatan berkaitan kehilangan Boeing 777 itu.

Hasil daripada bukti terbaru itu, sumber-sumber berkata, usaha mencari telah dipergiatkan lagi di Laut Andaman dan juga Lautan Hindi.

Dianggap misteri yang paling membingungkan dalam sejarah penerbangan moden, tidak ada kesan pesawat atau mana-mana tanda bangkai kapal terbang itu yang ditemui walaupun usaha mencarinya membabitkan pasukan tentera laut dan pesawat tentera pelbagai negara.

Kali terakhir pesawat itu dilihat skrin radar awam ialah sebelum jam 1.30 pagi Sabtu waktu Malaysia, kurang satu jam selepas ia berlepas dari Kuala Lumpur, ketika ia terbang ke arah timur laut melintas muara Teluk Thailand.- malaysiakini

Was Malaysian jet flown to Pakistan by hijacker? Radar data shows MH370 flew towards Indian islands…

Military radar suggests a Malaysia Airlines jetliner missing for nearly a week was deliberately flown towards the India's Andaman Islands, it has been claimed.

Separate reports have previously suggested the plane could have flown for a further five hours, covering a distance of about 2,200 miles and therefore potentially reaching the border of Pakistan, destinations in the Indian Ocean or Mongolia.

As the search continued for the missing Boeing 777, which vanished with 239 people on board, sources familiar with the investigation today said analysis of the Malaysian data suggested the plane was deliberately flown towards the Andaman Islands.

Two sources told Reuters an unidentified aircraft that investigators believe was Flight MH370 was following a route between navigational waypoints when it was last plotted on military radar off the country's northwest coast.

This indicates that it was either being flown by the pilots or someone with knowledge of those waypoints, the sources said.

The last plot on the military radar's tracking suggested the plane was flying towards India's Andaman Islands, a chain of isles between the Andaman Sea and the Bay of Bengal, they said.

Waypoints are geographic locations, worked out by calculating longitude and latitude, that help pilots navigate along established air corridors.

A third source familiar with the investigation said inquiries were focusing increasingly on the theory that someone who knew how to fly a plane deliberately diverted the flight.

'What we can say is we are looking at sabotage, with hijack still on the cards,' said that source, a senior Malaysian police official.

All three sources declined to be identified because they were not authorised to speak to the media.

Malaysian Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said he could not confirm the last heading of the plane or if investigators were focusing on sabotage.

'A normal investigation becomes narrower with time ... as new information focuses the search, but this is not a normal investigation,' he told a news conference. 'In this case, the information has forced us to look further and further afield.'

Investigators were still looking at 'four or five' 

possibilities, including a diversion that was intentional or under duress, or an explosion, he said. Police would search the pilot's home if necessary and were still investigating all 239 passengers and crew on the plane, he added.

Malaysian police have previously said they were investigating whether any passengers or crew had personal or psychological problems that might shed light on the mystery, along with the possibility of a hijacking, sabotage or mechanical failure.

As a result of the new evidence, the sources said, multinational search efforts were being stepped up in the Andaman Sea and also the Indian Ocean. Read more here
