ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – The Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) has decided to submit an attention notice in Senate on the matter of plane sold by Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) to germany, reported Dunya News.
Senator Saleem Mandviwalla has accused the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of PIA Bernd Hildenbrand, on Wednesday, of selling a PIA airplane worth million dollars to germany for just Rs 53 lac. He went on to say that no tender or government permission was taken before making the deal.
The senator demanded an inquiry and that a case should be registered against the current PIA CEO with respect to the matter.
