A Chinese patrol vessel searching for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 has discovered a pulse radio signal in the Indian ocean, according to the Chinese state news agency.

It comes as search efforts continue for the missing Malaysian Airlines plane.

It is feared batteries sending signals from the aircraft's black box recorders could run out in two days time.

Meanwhile, Malaysia's acting Transport Minister has denied allegations that the country was complicit in the disappearance of missing flight MH370.

Hishamuddin Hussein says his government's determined to continue the search for the aircraft.

He also announced the investigation's being divided into three strands.

“An air worthiness group to look at issues such as maintenance and systems. An operations group to examine things such as flight recorders and a medical and human factors group,” Hussein said.
