The Indonesian Search and Rescue Agency found body parts, clothing and debris in the Java Sea, after determining the place where the passenger plane “Boeing 737-500” crashed on Saturday.
The Associated Press quoted the director of the Search and Rescue Agency as saying that the wreckage and debris were found between the islands of Lankang and Lucky, at a depth of 23 meters below sea level.
The head of the Indonesian Search and Rescue Agency said that authorities detected, on Sunday, signals that may have been from the flight recorder of the Sriwijaya Air plane, which crashed into the sea minutes after taking off from the Jakarta airport.
In turn, Indonesian Transport Minister Bodhi Kariya Sumadi previously announced that forces had been sent to search for the plane and that signals were detected at two points, which may have come from the black box.
The Indonesian plane “Boeing 737-500” belonging to the company “Sriwijaya Air” crashed yesterday Saturday near the island of Laki in the Java Sea, after taking off from Jakarta airport on a flight to the city of Pontianak in the Kalimantan province in the west of the country.
The plane was carrying at least 65 people, including 53 passengers and a crew of 12.
