ANOTHER MH370 DISCOVERY: 'Business class cabin' debris sent to missing plane investigators
The suspected plane fragment, which could from the Boeing 777's business class cabin, was discovered in Rodrigues Island in the Mauritius.
Australia has led the search for MH370, which went missing in March 2014 with 239 people on board on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
Its Transport Minister Darren Chester said the debris, found last week, was an "item of interest".
Mr Chester said: "The Malaysian government is working with officials from Mauritius to seek to take custody of the debris and arrange for its examination."
But he was quick to point out nothing was certain at this stage, adding: Until the debris has been examined by experts, it is not possible to ascertain its origin."
William Auguste, who owns the Mourouk Ebony Hotel on Rodrigues Island, said the wreckage was found by guests.
He said: It looked like part of an aeroplane - it looks like it's from the inside part of it.
"I don't know how to say it but there was wallpaper inside of the plane, you can see this design and part of it is still there."
Mr Auguste said the wreckage was taken to police.

One day they will find the wreckage but it may be years.
