According to sources, during a search of the pilot's home in the city of Dusseldorf, western Germany, investigators discovered a large amount of drugs to treat mental illnesses.
The personal documents also showed that the pilot was suffering from severe stress and depression. However, the police did not find any addictive substances at the scene, indicating that the pilot was not dependent on stimulants such as drugs or alcohol. Investigators from both France and Germany have yet to comment on the information.
Earlier, the analysis of the black box recordings of conversations in the cockpit of the plane showed that co-pilot Andreas Lubitz locked the door inside when the captain left the cockpit, then the pilot deliberately lowered the plane so that it crashed into the side of a mountain in a remote area of southern France./.
