Two more PIA crew vanish in Canada

(Web Desk) – Two Pakistani flight attendants of its national airlines PIA vanished after landing in Toronto last week, raising the total number to 10, a spokesperson said on Tuesday. 

“The two flight attendants disappeared upon arriving in Toronto and didn’t show up on scheduled time of return,” Abdullah Khan, Pakistan International Airlines spokesperson, confirmed. 

He said a total of eight crew members of the airline had already disappeared in Canada in two years.

Flight attendants Khalid Mehmood and Feda Hussain reached Canada on board PK772 from Islamabad on Nov 10. The airline notified the authorities in Canada and launched a departmental investigation against them.

He said four PIA crew had disappeared the same way in last years, while four had vanished in 2023.
