Malaysia says \\\'mystified\\\' as no jet debris found

Malaysia on Monday morning announced that there was no trace of wreckage from the passenger jet, over two days after it vanished somewhere between Malaysia and Vietnam, with 239 people on board. The Malaysian announcement deepened the anguish of relatives more than 48 hours into the “mystifying” disappearance of the Boeing 777 plane. A potential breakthrough emerged Sunday when an aircraft scouring waters off southern Vietnam -- part of an international search and rescue effort -- spotted two objects authorities said could be debris from the Malaysia Airlines flight MH370. But Malaysian authorities, in a statement, said there was no confirmation they came from the Boeing 777 which slipped off radar screens early on Saturday, an hour after leaving Kuala Lumpur bound for Beijing. “Unfortunately ladies and gentleman, we have not found anything that appears to be objects from the aircraft, let alone the aircraft itself,” Malaysia’s civil aviation chief Azharuddin Abdul Rahman announced in Kuala Lumpur. “This unprecedented missing aircraft mystery -- it is mystifying and we are increasing our efforts to do what we have to do,” he said. Malaysia also launched a terror probe after at least two of the passengers on board were found to have travelled on stolen passports, according to Reuters.
