MAKASSAR, Indonesia, Jan 2 (Reuters) - Earlier statements that the crash site of a plane with 102 people on board had been found in the mountains of Indonesia's Sulawesi island were wrong, officials said on Tuesday.

"The location has not been found. We apologise that the news that we conveyed was not true," said First Air Marshal Eddy Suyanto, commander of Hasanuddin air base in Makassar.
