On March 21, a Boeing 737 plane carrying 132 passengers crashed in China’s Guangxi province. This is the first major accident reported in China after 2010 when 44 of 96 people were killed on board an Embraer E-190 regional jet flown by Henan Airlines.

However, it was in 1994 that China reported its worst-ever flight crash, killing all 160 passengers on board. The flight was operated by the China Northwest Airlines and involved a Tupolev Tu-154 flying from Xian to Guangzhou, ranking as China’s worst-ever air disaster, according to Aviation Safety Network.

The flights crashed as a result of an autopilot malfunction that caused violent shaking and overstressed the airframe, breaking the plane in half, killing everyone on board. The Tupolev Tu-154 crash remains the deadliest airplane crash ever in mainland China.

Not just 1994, in 1999, another Tupolev Ty-154 crashed operated by China Southwest Airlines bearing flight 4509 (SZ4509). The domestic flight from Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport, Sichuan to Wenzhou Yongqiang Airport, Zhejiang crashed while on approach to Wenzhou Airport, killing all 61 passengers.

Chinese authorities banned the Russian jetmaker in early 2000 after series of fatal crashes. According to the Aviation Safety Network, China’s air safety record has been among the best in the world over the past decade.

The 737-800 model that crashed on Monday has a good safety record and is the predecessor to the 737 MAX model that has been grounded in China for more than three years following fatal crashes in 2018 in Indonesia and 2019 in Ethiopia.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
