In an incident where nothing can be ruled out, is it a surprise that some relatives of the passengers on missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 are hoping it is a hijacking?To some it is a far-fetched conspiracy theory, and to others, it represents the only scenario that leaves open the possibility of seeing their loved ones alive.That's how some of the families of the missing in Beijing feel.
Authorities have been unified in their preliminary conclusions that terrorism does not appear to be behind the plane's disappearance.
But no one can rule it out."I cannot confirm whether there is no hijacking," Malaysian Transportation Minister Hishammuddin binHussein said at a news conference Friday. "Like I said from the start, and I've been very consistent, we're looking at all possibilities."
As the days pass with no sighting of wreckage in the ocean, a theory taking shape is that the plane might have been landed somewhere, either by hijackers or by the pilots.
One of the clues that has complicated the search is evidence that the missing plane might have switched course drastically after its transponder stopped sending signals.
If the plane did indeed turn westward, it would have had enough fuel to have made it India or Pakistan, CNN law enforcement analyst Tom Fuentes said."It had enough fuel to do that," Fuentes said.
"So, what that says is, somebody was flying that plane in that direction on purpose. Whether it'd be a hijacker orthe pilots themselves, someone was in control of that plane while it stayed in the air and kept flying."Tweet Follow @punshcomempower
