REPORTS that a Malaysia Airlines plane wreckage had been found in the heart of the Filipino jungle have been unfounded.
Malaysia’s Police Chief General Khalid Abu Bakar said Philippine authorities had investigated the claims made over the weekend that a plane with a Malaysian flag and human remains inside had been found on the island of Sugbay in the Tawi Tawi province were untrue.
“The Philippines has confirmed there is no plane wreckage,” the state-run Bernama news agency quoted General Khalid as saying in a text message.
On Saturday, a man reported in Sandakan police station in the Malaysian part of Borneo that his nephew found aircraft wreckage, which could be part of the missing flight MH370.
Jamil Omar, a local audiovisual technician, told old Malaysian TV channel Astro Awani that his newphew and a few of his friends were out hunting for birds when they stumbled on the plane in early September.
They reportedly found skeletons in the pilot’s chair and cabin as well as a piece of cloth said to be a Malaysian flag.
