'Tell us the truth': Furious Chinese families hurl water bottles at Malaysian airline officials as confusion over missing jet deepens again after nine fresh witnesses place plane near THAILAND

A series of new eyewitnesses have told authorities in Malaysia that they saw Flight MH370 up to an hour after it disappeared from civilian radar screens - and in places which back up the theory that it made a U-turn.
The development lends weight to the belief that the plane changed direction and may have plunged into the Strait of Malacca or the neighbouring Andaman Sea, where the search is now focused.
Malaysian air force general Rodzali Daud said search and rescue efforts were now being expanded to the north of the Strait of Malacca, and that the possibility of a 'turn back' was being considered.
But it came as Chinese relatives of the missing people vented their frustration at Malaysian officials in Beijing, throwing water bottles and shouting: 'Tell us the truth.'

Police in Malaysia disclosed that they had nine eyewitness reports of aircraft 'noise and lights' being seen in the north-east of the country, near the border with Thailand, after the plane's last recorded sighting on civilian radar systems.
The new claims follow two earlier statements by a businessman and a fisherman that they had seen an aircraft's lights low in the sky before they disappeared.
Deputy police commander Dak Jalaluddin Abdul Rahman said the eyewitnesses had reported that they saw an aircraft - possibly the missing jet - at about the time all civilian tracking data was lost with flight MH370 in the early hours of last Saturday.
The reports, from several towns and villages in the north east, said the aircraft was seen low over the sea.
The towns included Kuala Besar, Pentai Cahaya Bulan, Pentai Senok and Penarik, all of which are on the coast of the South China Sea, which is south and west of where the plane was last seen.
'Based on the reports, the plane was sighted between 1.30am and 1.45am,' said commander Jalaluddin.
'A bus driver, who gave his voluntary statement on Sunday, said he saw a low-flying plane at Penarik at about 1.45am the same day flight MH370 went missing.
'The driver was sure that he saw the aircraft's blinking beacon lights.'
From the Marang area, said the commander, eight villagers lodged police reports claiming they had heard a loud noise on Saturday night coming from the direction of Pulau Kapas.
One of the villagers, Alias Salleh, 36, told The Star newspaper that he and some friends were on a bench about 400m from the Marang beach at 1.20am when they heard a loud and frightening noise which sounded like the fan of a jet engine.
'The loud and frightening noise came from the north east of Pulau Kapas,' said Mr Alias.
'We looked around the Rhu Muda beach but did not see anything unusual.'
If the sightings are correct it would put the plane on course for the north of the Strait of Malacca, assuming it maintained a steady route.
That is where the main search and rescue operation is now concentrating on, according to Gen Daud.
Gen Daud said that the search now included waters around Penang Island, at the north of the Malacca Strait.
The plane turning back 'had not been ruled out', he said.
He denied he had said that there had been a definite sighting of it on military radar, but did not deny that there was a sighting - only that he had said it himself.
Meanwhile the country's civilian aviation chief Azharuddin Abdul Rahman said today: "There is a possibility of an air turn back. We are still investigating and looking at the radar readings,".
On a day of confusion, Vietnam briefly scaled back the search off the southern coast, saying it was receiving scanty and confusing information from Malaysia.
Hanoi later said the hunt - now in its fifth day - was back on in full force and was even extending on to land.
The confusion over where to look is adding to one of the most baffling mysteries in modern aviation mystery, and prolonging the agonising wait for hundreds of relatives of the missing.
In Beijing, there was fury from families of the 239 people on board, who are desperate for any news. Relatives hurled water bottles at airline officials and accused them of lying.
