Based on the information provided so far, this accident has all of the characteristics of CFIT.
However with EGPWS installed (and operational) then this type of event should not occur.
Anybody able to confirm if this aircraft had EGPWS fitted?
It should have done based on ICAO requirements, but then not all countries / operators meet the ICAO standards (or maintain the equipment; cf reports of MD80 CFIT in Turkey).
