Following the revelation by DCA which officially declared the disappearance of the MH370 an accident and all 239 people onboard presumed dead, PM Najib tweeted his condolences:
To which, a Twitter user named Fazel, using the handle @ollie_mollie, replied to Najib's condolence tweet, saying that the disappearance of the MAS flight was a conspiracy and not an accident as declared by DCA on 29 January
"@NajibRazak jib jib..it's not an accident, it's a conspiracy," he said, in response to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's tweet assuring that search efforts will continue.

Twitter is a place where lots of people say lots of silly things, and no one really bothers. But Fazel, for tweeting that the MH370 was a "conspiracy" and not an accident, is now the subject of a police investigation after IGP picked up the tweet and ordered a probe.
Khalid, who tweets at @KBAB51, posted a screenshot of Fazel's tweet and issued instructions: "PCIRC @PDRMsia Sila kesan dan siasat 'Fazel' di bawah ini" (Please identify and investigate this 'Fazel').
PCIRC is the Police Cyber Investigation Response Centre while @PDRMsia is the Twitter handle for the Royal Malaysian Police.

The Malaysian Insider is reporting that Fazel's account, however, has since been deactivated after a few other Twitter users challenged him to provide evidence for his conspiracy claim
"We are trying to calm them (next-of-kin of MH370) down. So if you do not know what is really going on with MH370, do not be an 'itchy mouth'(by) saying something senseless and uncorroborated by evidence," he said.
