Earlier this month, in another bizarre incident, a PIA employee ran amok with a catering pick-up van on the runway of Karachi airport for half an hour. He was detained by the Airport Security Force (ASF) but by then, he had caused two other vehicles to collide with each other and had injured an official.
PIA, however, denied the incident and said that a collision took place only between the vigilance vehicle and an ASF car.
