stolen passports

It has emerged that two of the passengers on the missing flight MH370 were travelling on stolen passports. Initially this was thought to suggest that terrorism might be involved in the disappearance, but Interpol has dismissed this notion, believing instead that the two Iranians with false travel documents were hoping to seek asylum in Europe.

An Austrian and Italian were on the passenger list of flight Malaysia Airlines flight 370 but not on the flight—both lost their passports in Thailand.
