15 Kenyan families reject Boeing's compensation for crash, will pursue claims in court

Fifteen Kenyan families of people killed in a plane crash in Ethiopia in March on Friday rejected a proposal by Boeing to compensate them, saying they will pursue their claims in court. “So far our clients have rejected negotiations outside court,” lawyer Irungu Kangata said. He said Boeing twice tried to initiate settlement negotiations with them in June. Kangata said they are not pursuing compensation from Ethiopian Airlines.
