The prospect of a mid air explosion is ruled out since the bodies do not have any signs of burns. The fact that no water was found in the lungs shows that the passengers did not drown and perished before impact on water.

The report on fractures was first reported on Wednesday by Brazil's O Estado de Sao Paulo newspaper. The paper reported that some of the passengers were found with little or no clothing.
