Fairplay Plea: ‘Male officials harassing women pilots’

LAHORE: The Lahore High Court on Wednesday sought a reply from the administration of Pakistan International Airlines in a harassment petition filed by a woman pilot. Captain Riffat Haye submitted that women pilots of the airline were sexually harassed by male officials. She said no action had so far been taken in a complaint she earlier filed with the PIA Women Development Standing Committee. She told the court that male officials threatened female pilots with stopping their promotions if their demands were not met.
