Divers find second Lion Air black box

Navy divers in Indonesia have located the black box from the Lion Air jet that crashed into the Java Sea last October.

The cockpit voice recorder was found broken in two.

Human remains were also discovered on the seabed, according to deputy maritime minister Ridwan Djamaluddin.

The Boeing 737 MAX jet crashed shortly after take-off from Jakarta on October 29, killing all 189 on board. The pilot had asked to return to the airport, but then contact was lost.

The other black box, the flight data recorder, was recovered three days after the crash.
