LAHORE: The Senate’s Public Accounts Committee (PAC), on Monday, directed National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to investigate the sale of a Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) plane to a German museum.
PAC Chairman Khurshid Shah ordered NAB to investigate the case and also directed it to find out the name of the person who had ordered the name of the former PIA CEO Bernd Hildenbrand to be removed from Exit Control List (ECL).
A four-member committee will be made on the orders of Shah and will be chaired by Sherry Rehman to investigate the case.
The flight worthy A-310 plane, which was earlier thought to have gone missing, was later revealed to have been sold to a German museum without prior permission from the authorities or PIA getting any advance payment.
Previously, PIA Spokesperson Mashhood Tajwar had claimed that the plane was chartered to a British company who wished to use it for the filming of a movie.
