SUNDAY TIMES ISLAMABAD: The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) furnished this statement before the top court after it was ordered to hold inquiry into degrees of staffers of different airlines.
The hearing of the case was conducted by three-member bench headed by Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar. The CAA further informed the court that licenses of all fake degree holders had been cancelled.
Justice Nisar asked whether documents that confirmed the status of fake degrees were true. ‘We don’t want to anyone to lose their livelihood due to negligence of any one,’ he remarked.
The CAA said verification of six degrees was left because their holders were out of country.
The counsel of the CAA said pilots had the right to file an appeal after suspension of their licenses. One of the pilots said his degree was bona fide, however his license had been cancelled by the CAA. Chief justice responded him that anyone facing such issues should contact relevant forums.
