The flight attendants' union says that it is within the families' right to seek legal advice and MAS should not be penalising them.
PETALING JAYA: National Union of Flight Attendants (Nufam) said it is irresponsible of Malaysia Airlines to abandon the families of MH370 crew members just because they spoke to their lawyers.
Its president, Ismail Nasaruddin, said MAS must safeguard the rights of the family members until there was a closure to the missing MH370 flight.
It was reported today that MAS had severed ties with seven families of the MH370 crew members for seeking legal advice.
Caregivers were also instructed to stop engaging the families and any communication to MAS should be handled by the counsel representing the families.
