PESHAWAR: Foreign experts from the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) have completed an investigation into the Airblue crash of 2010, but the report has yet to be submitted, according to sources close to the investigation team. The experts were called upon the instructions of the Peshawar High Court after the court declared the initial inquiry report of the incident incomplete and full of flaws. The court called upon the ministry of defence and Civil Aviation Authority to reinvestigate the case, with help of ICAO experts. Sources told The Express Tribune that the international experts, who arrived in Pakistan on June 2, have completed the inquiry into the crash. Sources said they had also briefed officials of the ministry of defence that the report would soon be produced before officials of the ministry of defence.
