Here is an update:

I just heard the ATC tapes with 1951 before and after the crash. All was going normal, when center handed of 1951 to approach the pilot asked if it was ok for him to hold speed, this indicates that they didn't have any problem at all, the pilot knows what speed they are doing and the speed was good for approach, the controller approved it.
I also heard someone who survived the crash saying the aircraft started to shake and second after that it started to plunge to the ground, to me this indicates it suffered an engine failure and at this altitude the pilots couldn't recover from it.
