Is this a piece of debris from the cabin of missing flight MH370?
The piece was found in Mauritius by two hotel guests on holiday
Australia’s transport minister Sunday said new debris found on the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius would be examined to see if it belonged to MH370, just weeks after two Mozambique fragments were linked to the missing flight.
The debris was found on the Mauritius island of Rodrigues by a vacationing couple, news.com.au reported citing Reunion island website Clicanoo.
“The Malaysian government is working with officials from Mauritius to seek to take custody of the debris and arrange for its examination,” Australian Transport Minister Darren Chester said.
“This debris is an item of interest however until the debris has been examined by experts it is not possible to ascertain its origin.”
However, it remains unclear which country would examine the debris.
Aviation expert Don Thompson told the Australian news website the fragment could be the internal bulkhead from the Malaysia Airlines’ Boeing 777 business or economy class cabin.
