AUSTRALIA, Feb 19 – Former prime minister Tony Abbott has revealed the \u201chighest levels\u201d of the Malaysian Government believed those on board MH370 were killed by a suicidal pilot.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy understanding, my very clear understanding, from the very top levels of the Malaysian Government is that from very, very early on here they thought it was a murder suicide by the pilot,\u201d Mr Abbott told Sky News.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet me reiterate \u2013 I want to be absolutely crystal clear \u2013 it was understood at the highest levels that this was almost certainly murder suicide by the pilot.<\/p>\n

\u201cMass murder suicide by the pilot.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

MH370 vanished on March 8, 2014 after leaving Kuala Lumpur airport.<\/p>\n

It was destined for Beijing but the world lost contact over the South China Sea.<\/p>\n

Mr Abbott, who was Australian Prime Minister at the time has spoken in detail about his conversations with Malaysian leaders for the first time in Sky News documentary MH370: The Untold Story<\/a><\/p>\n

So have Malaysians been lied to all this while?<\/p>\n
