Mumbai - The family of a British movie assistant killed by a train during a Bollywood shoot will seek charges in Britain against the director, who already faces prosecution in India, a lawyer said Friday.
Usha Purohit, a lawyer representing relatives of Nadia Khan who died in Mumbai on May 25, said the family was completing paperwork for a civil suit in Britain seeking unspecified financial compensation from director Kaizad Gustad.
The family accuses the director, who was shooting a film about commuters called Mumbai Central, of mis-reporting his 27-year-old assistant's death as a road, rather than a rail, accident.
"It was made out to look like a road accident to the family members," Purohit told reporters.
She said Khan's family was expected to visit Mumbai to gather evidence themselves.
