Seattle to Pay $29 Million Compensation for Indian Student Jaahnavi Kandula's Death

• Seattle authorities agree to pay $29 million (approx. 265 crore rupees) in compensation for the tragic death of Indian student Jaahnavi Kandula.
• The settlement notice was filed in King County Superior Court, with $20 million covered by the city's insurance.
• The incident sparked international outrage, especially after body camera footage showed officer Daniel Auderer laughing about Jaahnavi's death and making insensitive comments.
• Auderer was dismissed from his job for damaging police image and eroding public trust, though he claims wrongful termination.
• Officer Kevin Dave, whose car struck Jaahnavi, was also dismissed and fined $5,000 for negligent driving; no criminal charges were filed due to lack of evidence of intentional disregard.
