ISLAMABAD: Malaysia has verified that all Pakistani pilots currently employed in the country hold valid licenses and it has reinstated them with immediate effect, its aviation regulator said in a statement on Thursday.
The pilots were suspended on July 2, days after authorities in Pakistan announced that up to a third of the country’s pilots may have falsified their qualifications.
The Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) said 18 Pakistani pilot license holders in Malaysia were verified by the Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority.
Earlier this month, CAAM said the pilots were employed with “local operators” such as flying schools, flying clubs and training organizations.

Six killed in Mississippi, suspect charged with murder

MISSISSIPPI: Authorities have charged a 24-year-old man with murder after six people were killed in a series of shootings in northeast Mississippi.
Clay County Sheriff Eddie Scott said the victims — family members related to the suspect — were shot at three separate locations late Friday. One of the victims was a child.
“I don’t know what kind of motive you could have to kill a 7-year-old,” he said at a press conference Saturday.
Sheriff’s Deputy Steven Woodruff identified Daricka M. Moore as the suspect. He faces a first-degree murder charge that could be upgraded to capital murder, Scott said. He may also face additional murder charges.
The shootings took place in the rural community of Cedarbluff, which is west of the county seat of West Point.
