PUTRAJAYA: The impact of fire and fall during the Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 tragedy had caused some of the bones of the victims to be buried as deep as two feet underground, said D13 (Bank Data/DNA) chief assistant director, ACP Hussein Omar Khan.

The Royal Malaysian Police Disaster Victim Identification (DVI) commander for the MH17 tragedy said the victims' bones were found buried in the ground when the recovery team made its final mission in April this year.
