According to avherald today:
« On Mar 29th 2016 the MAK condemned all “leaked” information reported by Russian media as false and stated, that no information whatsoever has been leaked from the investigation. About 1 hour of CVR has been transcribed so far, including the crew communication in the final stages of the flight. Mechanical reconstruction as well as preliminary analysis of the flight data recorder so far do not suggest any malfunction of the engines of the aircraft and no failures of aircraft systems or components, the aircraft had all necessary documentation and certificates of airworthiness, passed all required maintenance and was airworthy at the time of departure. The MAK is now undertaking mathematical modelling of the aircraft's flight trajectory in combination with the sounds available on the CVR. The identification of wreckage pieces and mechanical reconstruction of the aircraft continues. »
