This is something latest theory about the ill-fated flight.
A Russian newspaper has claimed that flight MH370 was hijacked and landed in Afghanistan where passengers were being held hostage.
The bizarre theory has been attributed to an alleged source within the country's FSB secret service, according to newspaper Moskovsky Komsomolets.
The source stated: "Flight MH370 Malaysia Airlines missing on March 8 with 239 passengers was hijacked.
"Pilots are not guilty; the plane was hijacked by unknown terrorists.
"We know that the name of the terrorist who gave instructions to pilots is 'Hitch'.
"The plane is in Afghanistan not far from Kandahar near the border with Pakistan."
According to the Daily Star, Moskovsky Komsomolets, claims all the passengers are alive and have been divided into seven groups and are living in mud huts with almost no food.
It also alleges 20 Asian 'specialists' on board the flight have been smuggled into a bunker in Pakistan and that terrorists were possibly seeking to negiotiate with America or China.
The Russian newspaper said one of its correspondents was tipped off anonymously about the allegations.
