Missing Malaysia Airlines flight 'was flown to Taliban-controlled area to be used at a later date'

Missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370 could now be in a Taliban-controlled base on the Afghanistan and north west Pakistan
border, it has been claimed.
The search, now covering 11 countries, has so far offered very few clues on the whereabouts of the Boeing 777 which
disappeared nine days ago from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
Experts are now in agreement that the plane was hijacked or
sabotaged and one theory that has been put forward is that it is
being kept in a Taliban area ready for use at a later date, according
to the Independent.
The plane is believed to have flown either to the north west from the Malaysian peninsula or south west.
If it was the former, then it could be in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan or Tajikistan.
As part of the investigation police are looking into the backgrounds of captain Zaharie Ahmed Shah, 53, and co-pilot Fariq
Abdul Hamid, 27, and their homes have been searched.
Analysis is also taking place on flight simulators built by Mr Shah and found at his home.
A flight engineer who was a passenger on the plane is also being investigated.
Malaysian national Mohd Khairul Mari Selamat, 29, is believed to have worked for a private charter jet company and is being
probed as authorities look into anyone who had technical flying knowledge.
