According to Jiang, the hearings are expected to continue through mid-December. "I hope China's laws can bring justice to the families who have not received a penny of compensation or an apology in the past 10 years." "The disappearance of 239 lives, including 154 Chinese people, is a shame.", Jiang Hui, Son of woman on flight MH370, via 'The Independent'. 'The Independent' reports that after nearly a decade, the fate of the missing plane and all of the passengers on board remains unknown. According to online postings, the hearings are expected to take place in Beijing's main Chaoyang District Intermediary Court.
