A reward of 30 million dollars has been announced for anyone providing information to the identification of the culprits behind the downing of Malaysian airlines MH17 over Ukraine.
The reward amount is the largest after the 25 million dollars that was offered by the U.S. to capture Osama bin Laden, says a firm of German investigators.
The detective agency Wifka says that an anonymous benefactor had deposited the amount in a bank in Zurich, Switzerland.
The agency also said that the person revealing the information about the crash culprits would be given a new identity.
The company said that they wanted to know who had carried out the actual shooting and their whereabouts.
Josef Resch, a Wifka official said that it was just a question of money and that everyone could be bought.
