ISLAMABAD (92 News) – The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has submitted a report about the fake degrees and licences of pilots to the Supreme Court. According to the report, the inquiry board has pointed out doubtful licences of 262 pilots. Eight pilots, out of 16 having doubtful degrees, have been suspended. The report says orders have been issued to suspend 34 pilots. An application, according to the report, has been sent to the NADRA for biometric verification to avoid the fake licence in future. Pilots will have to give eight different papers to get a licence. The report says the pilots having fake licences had not participated in the exams and tampered with the record. PIA’s 141, SereneAir’s 10 and Air Blue’s nine pilots have been grounded. Some pilots had submitted the fake degrees off FA and O Level.
