Not sure which journalist or report you're talking about, but I can assure you it's probably just tip of the iceberg. Most corruption is done so elegantly, you wouldn't find a paper trace. I can tell you this much with certainty, there is nepotism, political and ethnic appointments, corruption, negligence, and incompetence. Don't forget its the same airline that was caught a few years ago having multiple pilots with fake degrees and/or fake licenses. PALPA, the pilots union mafia, was quick to the rescue to avoid others being scrutinized. I have/had 3 close relatives in PIA in different departments to know quite well how things work. Thankfully, 2 of them left (for greener pastures) because they were professionals.

I mentioned earlier in one of my posts that there are "several issues" at PIA but chose not to go into details. It would give a general state of affairs but not particularly helpful in this scenario.
