PIA sacks five crew members 'questioned' by London authority |
2015-06-10 |
[DAWN] The management of Pakistain International Airlines (PIA) on Tuesday terminated services of five crew members on flight PK-788 from London to Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... for violating rules and regulations. A day earlier it had been reported that United Kingdom's customs authority detained five PIA crew members from the same flight -- PK-788 -- on charges of smuggling and money laundering. At that time a PIA spokesperson had said that UK's border security force had stopped the crew for questioning, adding that they had not been detained. The spokesperson said five crew members were questioned more than others but later returned to Karachi on their flight. The spokesperson had also dismissed reports of currency and cellphones being recovered from the crew. |

#1 At least the Brits had the good sense to not detain the crew, but let them go home to get busted. |
