March 8, 2014, was a black day for Malaysia, as on this date, the MH 370, a flight owned by Malaysian Airlines, went missing while it was flying from Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Malaysia, to Beijing Capital International Airport, China. From then, several search operations were conducted to find the missing debris, but till now, nothing authentic has been found out. As the mystery behind MH370 continues, we put forward some popular conspiracy theories which are considered to be the reason behind the flight's missing status.
Alien Abduction
Conspiracy theorists have a thousand tongues when things can be related to aliens. As the MH 370 mystery continues, many people believe that the flight was abducted by a giant alien mothership. These people also claim that aliens have abducted the flight to conduct experiments on people who were there on the flight. Even though it is very hard to believe this theory, it has gained immense popularity due to the presence of extraterrestrial element.
North Korean missile
For the past few years, North Korea is posing an immense threat to the entire human community. Many conspiracy theorists claim that the missing of MH 370 is somewhere connected with Pyongyang and its Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un. These people believe that MH 370 is snatched by North Korea, while some others claim that the Asian country has shot down this flight accidentally.
Pilot committed suicide
This is another popular theory which surfaces on the Internet when it comes to the missing of MH 370. Several reports previously suggested that the pilot in MH 370, Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shad, had intentionally steered the flight into the ocean.
The role of the United States
Months after the attack, then Prime Minister of Malaysia, Mahathir Mohammed wrote in his blog stating that someone is hiding something. Many people believed that the 'someone' referred by Mahathir is none other than the United States. According to this theory, the United States has shot down the flight fearing that it is hijacked and will be used for a similar attack which happened on September 11, 2001.
Recent Developments
According to latest updates, it has been learned that three companies have approached Malaysia to resume the search operations to find the debris of MH 370. However, Malaysian Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai told that no decisions have been made on whether to resume the search operations again.
