PIA chief’s appointment challenged

A petition has been moved to the Lahore High Court challenging appointment of Asim Suleman as Chairman of Pakistan International Airline. Advocate Nabeel Kahloon has filed the petition saying that appointment of PIA chairman was made in violation law and merit. He made Advisor to PM and DG Civil Aviation as respondents in his petition.  He said no ad was given in any newspaper for the said post nor open merit was held to fill the post of PIA Chairman. Election was approaching fast and at this moment, such appointment was unlawful, said the petitioner.  He asked the court to set aside his appointment as PIA Chairman.–Staff Reporter
