MORONI - Two men arrested as the suspected hijackers of an Ethiopian airliner that crashed into the Indian Ocean off the Comoro Islands are not the hijackers after all. The pair, from Kenya and Djibouti, had nothing to do with the hijacking on Saturday that claimed at least 120 lives on a flight from Addis Ababa to Nairobi.
Ethiopian radio confirmed yesterday the three hijackers were Ethiopian and probably died in the crash.
