That someone in the cockpit deliberately steered that plane off course. Its important to point out this assessment was prepared months ago. It does not come to any firm conclusions about what eventually happened to that plane. Heres cnns u. S. Justice correspondent evan perez. This assessment is based on satellite and other Available Evidence and analysts looked at multiple course changes the aircraft made after it deviated from the scheduled course from kuala lumpur to beijing. Analysts determined it is most likely someone in the cockpit deliberately moved the aircraft crossing indonesian and to the indian ocean. That was done for internal government purposes and not meant to be public. A malaysian government report from march said there is no proof of wrongdoing in the plane route. They are looking at a piece of the plane debris that could possibly be from mh 370. This is where it was found. Crews dragged it across and it landed over there against that stone wall. Cleaning much of the evidence off of it in the process. It is only when the police and the special Investigation Unit turned out that it began to dawn on them that perhaps they discovered something pretty crucial. He has been working on this stretch of beach for years. As soon as he saw the debris he shouted to the rest of the crew to stop what they were doing. Somehow, he says he knew what it was. Translator i thought perhaps it was from a plane crash so i said dont touch it anymore. Because if it is a plane crash people have died and you have to have respect for them. Reporter johnny was right. Local officials told us the barnacles you see in the picture will be vital in establishing where the debris sank and how long it has been underwater. This morning, more debris washed ashore. It appears to resemble the remnants of a passenger carry case but of course until further investigations are carried out, no one knows for certain. Since then Police Helicopters have been patroling this stretch of sea, trying to get a better line of sight on anything and everything that is headed to the shore. For many of the families of those that disappeared on that plane, this is the first time in a very long time they are beginning to feel some faint glimmer of hope. Hope they might finally know what happened. Cnn, reunion island. Short time ago Australias DeputyPrime Minister said it looked very likely the debris found on reunion island maybe from a boeing 777. Cnns david molko has been listening to that News Conference and is joining us live from hong kong. David, good to have you with us. The deputy Prime Minister is urging caution. Waiting for french investigators to give the final word on the piece of debris but he said the simple fact it washed ashore on reunion island is consistent with regards to their current modeling of where debris could have traveled. Thats right. She using words like very confident, very likely. We have heard that from malaysias Prime Minister. We heard it from the top investigator in australia. But he said Something Else. And that is we have to be sure of the facts. George theres no room for error here. They have to be 100 sure of where this piece of debris is coming from. At the very least for the 239 families involved and of course the entire world watching us. Remember 500 days of searching, more than 500 days since the plane disappeared. This is all they have to go on. This is the first piece of physical evidence. Truss who has been the face of this dealing with this kind of tied in the evidence this piece of debris and explained how that fits in to the bigger priority which is the search for the plane itself. Take a listen. We remain confident we are searching in the right place, and if in fact the plane parts found on reunion island are linked to mh370 that would rather strengthen the case that we are in the right area but it doesnt prove it conclusively. It doesnt prove it conclusively. And that has been the thing about this search all along over the last 16 months. Nothing has been conclusive. Even the satellite data that led them to that search area was a new kind of analysis that never had been done in that way. George as you mention, this the finding of this debris if proven to be from mh 370 fits by backtracking through the ocean countries does fit and is consistent with the current search zone of course the search for the plane and the passengers continuing this very day. Theres one search vessel out in the southern indian ocean continuing to scour the bottom for any signs of that plane. So a cautious optimism about that piece of debris. But it was interesting to hear the deputy Prime Minister take a different assessment of this bag that was discovered. So it seems to be luggage. Talk to us about that. Potential suitcase discovered by the same man who actually found the piece of wreckage. The flapper ron. You saw it in the piece there. It has to be taken seriously, truss, says and of course they will take everything seriously. But there have been so many false alarms and false leads. We saw early in the search from the South China Sea to the bay of bengal to the southern indian ocean things that were spotted that were thought to be debris from the plane, some turned out to be just garbage floating around. Of course they want to take a very close look at this. The french say this is officially part of their investigation as well. The bigger question here george though is whether there ought to be a second search area now. We have one off australia, 1500 miles off of the coast of australia where they are looking underwater. Should they begin to search in the waters around the island off the coast of madagascar in hopes they could reunion more debris . That is difficult to say. Its a decision that would have to be driven by the malaysians and french as well. It would be expensive. What results could they find . Obvious everybody watching very closely about this piece of debris this piece of an aircraft wing seeing if they can conclusively say one way or another whether it is part of mh370. Jonch george its expected the piece could be flown to paris in the coming days. It is a long flight more than 12 hours to france and the dea office. Investigators say they want to take a closer look and get their hands on it and see it with their own eyes because they want to be absolutely sure. Thats right. Waiting for that certainty. Thank you so much for your insights live from hong kong. David also speaking about those families. The families of those on board mh370 are reacting cautiously to the latest developments. Christie is joining us covering that angle of the story. Good to have you with us. Look i mean it has been anning a niedsing time for these families i. Has been a year and a half.

It says answer will come in to two days. That from the Prime Minister of malaysia saying any sort of confirmation or verification of the origin of the piece of suspected debris will come in two days. So the wait drives on for the Family Members. They are treating this with a mixture of caution. There have been so many false leads before and a mixture of hope and fear. Earlier condition to Lynda Kinkade was able to speak to a man whose wife was on the flight. Heres what he shad to say. This tells me a small fragment has been found and perhaps indicates that there was an inevitable end but beyond that it just doesnt tell me where the passengers might be where my wife might be. [ sirens ] his wife was on board mh370. And what he is saying echos what the chinese Family Members have been saying and they have been gathering together as a group. They issued a statement, it came out on thursday saying they want 100 confirmation of certainty that the piece of debris is from mh370. They want to know the whereabouts of their loved ones and bf all they want the search to go on. Back to you, george.
