'Political fight'
 
Some Chinese relatives have said they believe the Malaysian authorities are holding information back and have demanded more clarity.

After a meeting with officials from Malaysia Airlines on Tuesday, families held a vote on organising a hunger strike.

"What we want is the truth," said one woman.

"Don't let the passengers become the victims of a political fight."
