A senior Dutch forensic expert involved into the investigation of the MH17 plane crash has been dismissed, with further sanctions against him considered after he showed images of plane crash victims to his students. Professor George Maat, who was involved in MH17 victim identification “has been suspended from his work and we'll see if other measures need to be taken,"Thomas Aling, spokesman for the Dutch national forensics investigation team LTFO, told AFP on Thursday. He added that the expert was apparently fired for showing “photos that cannot be shown at a public meeting.”
The photos exposure became “shameful and very shocking for victims' relatives, this adds to the grief,”said the deputy head of the MH17 Air Disaster Association, Evert van Zijtveld.
Maas would possibly not have been incriminated in disclosing the photos if the lecture that took place in early April for an audience of about 150 people had been students-only, AFP reports. But an announcement on Facebook page clearly said the lecture was open to the public.
