“I just want to tell you that our investigative agencies are looking into the matter. Should we trust our own agencies or outsiders? Our agencies are working on this issue,” Mohol said, according to news agency PTI.
Mohol further reiterated that he would wait for the final report before making any judgments. “Only commenting on the final report is justified once it is finalized,” he added, stressing the need to trust India’s own investigative agencies rather than foreign media reports.
Earlier, Italian media reported that the crash was blamed on the pilot.
The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) also stepped in to clarify the situation on Thursday. They firmly stated that the investigation is still ongoing. The AAIB also called media reports claiming the investigation was completed “incorrect and speculative”.
The devastating accident occurred on June 12 last year when an Air India Boeing 787-8 bound for London Gatwick Airport crashed shortly after taking off from Ahmedabad. The crash killed 241 passengers and 19 others, making it one of India’s worst aviation disasters.
