Chicago: Fresh lawsuits were filed against Boeing at the federal district court in Chicago by two families of passengers who lost their lives in the recent Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 MAX crash that left all the 157 people on board dead. The two plaintiffs Manant Vaidya and Paul Njoroge lost several close family members in the 10 March crash, which spurred the grounding of Boeing MAX jets by a number of countries, including India. Those dead included the man's father Pannagesh Bhaskar Vaidya, mother Hansini Pannagesh Vaidya, sister Kosha Pannagesh Vaidya, brother-in-law Preritkumar Dixit and two nieces, 14-year-old Ashka Dixit and 13-year-old Anushka Dixit. The fresh lawsuits join a string of others which were filed against the American company in the aftermath of the crashes.
