Mr Rehman Malik kept PK-370 delayed for 2 hours for himself while the rest of the 220 passengers waiting. At first the PIA staff lied to the passengers citing "technical reasons" but eventually one passenger made them spill the beans. The passengers refused to let Rehman Malik on the plane along with his entourage
KARACHI: More than two hours delay in Pakistan International Airline (PIA) flight, leaving Karachi for capital city Islamabad, irked passengers on Monday night, Geo News reported.
Islamabad-bound flight PK370 was to depart at 7:00PM, however, it left the airport at 9:15PM.
The passengers expressed their anger when they were informed that the reason for the flight delay was VIP culture.
PML-N MNA, Dr Ramesh Kumar Vankwani arrived late for the flight and was confronted by passengers. When he informed them that he was an MNA, Dr Vankwani was not allowed to sit on his and seat and had to leave the plane.
Later, former Interior Minister and PPP leader Rehman Malik arrived and was met with the shouts of angry passengers. The former minister was accused of delaying the flight. "You should be ashamed of yourself," said a passenger to Malik who returned without boarding the plane
In a message on social media in this regard, Rehman Malik said the delay was not because of him, adding there should be inquiry into the matter. Malik said neither he is a VIP person nor he has such behaviour.
Meanwhile PIA spokesman, Mashood Tajor told Geo News that the flight was delayed for one and a half hour due to a technical fault, while two officers had been suspended for the extra 20 minute delay.
