Former Pakistan aviation minister and ex-chairman of Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, who was in Mumbai to participate in an aviation meet, said that the plight of PIA is no different from Air India’s.

Prey of politics: Shahid Khaqan Abbasi was imprisoned by the General Pervez Musharraf government, as he was the Chairman of the PIA, when Musharraf's plane was denied landing at the Jinnah International Airport, Karachi on his way back from Sri Lanka on October 12, 1999
