Aviation Division Secretary Mr. Saqib Aziz, also Chairman PIA, was termed the new Chief Executive Officer of the Pakistan International Airlines on Thursday, September 6^th.

A notification issued by the federal government on Wednesday said, “the federal government has been pleased to approve the grant of additional charge of CEO of PIA to Saqib Aziz (BS 22), secretary aviation with immediate effect and until further orders”.

PIA spokesperson Mashhood Tajwar was reported as saying that Mr Aziz had a long experience of administration and held various senior government positions.

However, nothing has been said about whether Mr. Aziz holds any aviation-related experience as had been emphasised by the Supreme Court of Pakistan a few days ago while sacking the then PIA CEO Musharraf Rasool Cyan, who had no such experience.

The Supreme Court of Pakistan had earlier declared the appointment of PIA CEO Musharraf Rasool Cyan as null and void on the grounds that he was appointed in violation of the guidelines for such appointments.
