Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said the final technical investigation report of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 incident will be submitted by the Board of Inquiry Dutch (DSB) in early October.
Najib said the DSB is in the midst of finalising the final report and will be examined in accordance with the provisions of Appendix 13 of the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO)
"A very detailed investigation is still on-going," Najib said during a memorial to mark the first anniversary of the tragedy at the Bunga Raya Complex, KLIA here, today.
On July 17 last year, the Flight MH17 was en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur when it was shot down over Ukraine, killing all 298 passengers and crew on board, including 43 Malaysians.
He said the motion for the resolution and the criminal tribunal which involved cooperation between the Malaysian goverment, Australia, the Netherlands, Belgium and Ukraine had been circulated to the 15 members of the UN Security Council to implement the voting process.
"We hope that with the continued calls from the Malaysian government through international platforms, we would be able to calm down the victims' family members and friends.
"It is important for the victim's family members to continue their lives in the best manner possible even though they have lost their beloved ones," he said.
The memorial service was also attended by the victims' next-of-kin and MAS staff.
Also present were the prime minister's wife Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor, deputy prime minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, cabinet ministers, religious leaders and foreign dignitaries.
Najib said investigation into the crash was still ongoing and it was placed under the responsibility of the police and the prosecution team who were collecting data to determine the cause and those who were responsible for the MH17 crash.
"JIT expected the investigation would be continued until end of this year, at least," Najib said.
