KUALA LUMPUR, (APP/AFP): Malaysian search crews have found
suspected debris from a helicopter that disappeared with six people on board, including a deputy minister and a member of parliament, the prime minister said Friday.
Search teams recovered a rotor blade, a floatation device, part of a
wall panel, a door and a seat early Friday on the Borneo island state of Sarawak near where the helicopter is believed to have crashed, Najib Razak told reporters.
“We are using all our assets to find the six passengers,” he said.
Najib added that rescuers were searching for the main body of the
helicopter and said the debris was found close to Batang Lupar, one of the
widest rivers on Borneo island.
