Dozens of family members whose loved ones were killed in a Lion Air plane crash rallied in the Indonesian capital Thursday, demanding the search for the jet continue.
The Boeing 737 MAX vanished from radar about 13 minutes after taking off from Jakarta on October 29, crashing into waters off Indonesia's northern coast and killing all 189 people onboard.
Authorities called off the grim task of identifying victims of the crash last month, with 125 people officially recognised after testing on human remains that filled some 200 body bags.
Relatives of the victims from the Boeing 737 MAX crash rallied outside Jakarta's presidential palace on Thursday to demand Indonesia's President Joko Widodo continues the search operations for the jet
Some of the victim's families claim only around 30 percent of the plane's body has been found
The victims' relatives are calling on authorities to help retrieve the remaining 64 bodies and pay compensation
Distraught families have said: 'We hope the search for the victims will use vessels with sophisticated technology.'
Some of the victims' families gathered in front of the presidential palace in Jakarta Thursday afternoon, calling on authorities to help retrieve the remaining 64 bodies and pay compensation.
The group said in a statement: 'Right now only around 30 percent of the plane's body has been found.'
'We hope the search for the victims will use vessels with sophisticated technology.'
The protest comes just a day after Indonesian media reported that 25 victims' families would file a new $100 million legal suit against Boeing due to faults with the 737 MAX.
Several relatives of the crash victims have already filed lawsuits against Boeing, including the family of a young doctor who was to have married his high school sweetheart last month.

The preliminary crash report from Indonesia's transport safety agency suggested that pilots struggled to control the plane's anti-stalling system immediately before the crash.
Investigators also found that the Lion Air jet should have been grounded over a recurrent technical problem before its fatal journey, but did not pinpoint a cause of the accident.
A final report is not likely to be filed until next year.

Lion Air owner Rusdi Kirana told Bloomberg on Wednesday the airline was contemplating cancelling a $22 billion order with Boeing following the October crash.
AFP could not immediately reach Kirana for comment on the report.
Lion Air Group has expanded rapidly in the past two decades to capture half the domestic market and now has Southeast Asia's biggest fleet.
But the accident has thrown the spotlight on the air safety record of Lion and other Indonesian carriers, which until recently faced years-long bans from entering European Union and US airspace.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
