Air India crash probe must be fair, fast, without leaks: Supreme Court

NEW DELHI: Supreme Court sought on Monday responses from DGCA, Aircraft Accidents Investigation Bureau and the Centre on steps taken to conduct an independent, impartial and expeditious probe into the crash of Air India’s June 12 London-bound flight.
The court told PIL petitioner NGO ‘Safety Matters Foundation’ that its demand to make public details of the flight data recorder could have serious consequences for relatives of the pilots.

All passengers and crew, barring one, were killed in the crash. “We have seen how one single sentence from the preliminary inquiry report was plucked out by western and Indian media to lay the blame on pilot error.
