India’s Supreme Court said no one in the country believed the deadly Air India crash in June was the captain’s fault while castigating an American publication for causing pain to his family.
An Air India Boeing Dreamliner crashed moments after taking off for London from the western city of Ahmedabad on 12 June. The aircraft lost power, veered off course and hit a medical college hostel near the airport, killing 229 passengers, 12 crew members and 19 people on the ground. Only one passenger survived.
