PIA issues show cause notice to CFO Nayyar Hayat
After the Supreme Court removed the former CEO and president Musharraf Rasool Cyan Nayyar was lobbying to reclaim his position or even become CEO. But after the arrival of Air Marshal Arshad Malik, he was keeping a low profile. 4 months ago a serving Air Force officer working in PIA without a portfolio had an argument with him. Later on, it was revealed that the Air Commodore told Nayyar to vacate his office.
After this argument staffers were seen throwing stuff out from Nayyar Hayat’s office into the lobby. This scene was witnessed by many PIA officers. This is seen as the evidence that the new management might not be interested to have Nayyar around.
