Family files lawsuit against Boeing over Ethiopian plane crash eNCA

, and three lawsuits have already been lodged over the Ethiopian Airlines crash, by the families of two Americans, including consumer activist Ralph Nader's great niece, and a Rwandan.Kabua's sister, Esther Kabau-Wanyoike, choked up as she told a press conference that she wanted to use her brother's death to improve aviation safety.

"He didn't leave a child. My mum is devastated," she said."We can use his demise to ensure safer travel for all."US lawyer Nomi Husain, who is also representing one of the American families, said the lawsuit was filed in Chicago late on Monday. The family was seeking to hold Boeing accountable, he said.

"We want to let the litigation process play out," he said."When you put profits over safety, you will be held accountable and you will pay a price." Boeing, which has previously declined to comment on individual lawsuits, and directed enquiries about the crash to investigating authorities, had no immediate comment on the latest case.
