Some families of those killed in a Jeju Air plane crash last December have filed a criminal complaint against 15 people, including South Korea's transport minister and the airline's CEO, for professional negligence.
The 72 bereaved relatives are calling for a more thorough investigation into the crash, which killed 179 of the 181 people on board – making it the deadliest plane crash on South Korean soil.
The crash was "not a simple accident", they allege, but a "major civic disaster caused by negligent management of preventable risks".
Nearly five months on, authorities are still studying what may have caused the plane to crash-land at Muan International Airport and then burst into flames.
