A PIA aircraft has been held back by a local court in Malaysia taking one-sided decision pertaining to a legal dispute between Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) and another party pending in a UK court.
The flight PK-895 landed in Kuala Lumpur from Karachi today. Boeing 777 was on lease at PIA from a Vietnamese company.
The passengers are being looked after and alternate arrangements for their travel have been finalized. Meanwhile, it is an unacceptable situation and PIA has engaged the support from the Government of Pakistan to take up this matter using diplomatic channels.
