Najib: We must establish the truth about the tragedy


PETALING JAYA: The Government owes it to the families of the 298 passengers and crew of Malaysia Airline Flight MH17 to establish the truth about the tragedy and is determined to bring to justice the person who “pressed the button” to bring down the plane.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said it was vital that Malaysian investigators who were sent to Ukraine on Monday gained full and unfettered access to the crash site to complete their work to find out the truth and recover all human remains.
