A Supreme Court lawyer on Monday served a legal notice asking the government to form an independent committee to investigate the alleged irregularities in pilot recruitment and flight operations by Biman Bangladesh Airlines.
The lawyer Md Tanvir Ahmed sent the legal notice.
The notice asked the authorities concerned to take steps to form the committee in two days.
In the notice, the lawyer said that he would take appropriate legal action against them if they do not form the committee to investigate the irregularities.
Secretary of the Ministry of Civil Aviation and Tourism, Chairman of the Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh (CAAB), Managing Director of Biman Bangladesh Airlines have been made respondents in the notice.
Earlier, Bangladesh Airlines Pilot Association (BAPA), the pilot's organization, had asked for an investigation into the irregularities for the sake of Biman's smooth operations.
The executive committee of BAPA submitted an application to the managing director of Biman in this regard.
