The contracts of Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) Deputy Managing Director (DMD) Saleem Syani and PIA Director Flight Operations (DFO) Capt Ilyas are expiring in June, following which Haneef Pathan and Capt Naveed Aziz would probably replace them.
Sources informed Pakistan Today that the DMD had continued his job even when MD Ejaz Haroon was recently removed from his post by a massive campaign of a joint action committee of the Pakistan Airline Pilots Association.
They said that the only reason the DMD was able to safely continue his job was because his contract stipulates that he has the right to sue the PIA if he is removed.
The successor of the current DMD would probably be Administration Director Haneef Pathan, who had retired in January, but PIA Chairman Ahmed Mukhtar extended his job tenure by two years when Ejaz Haroon was still the PIA MD. The former PIA MD had not let Pathan resume his job after retirement, but the latter bypassed the former and was able to secure an extension from thezPIA chairman.
Similarly, the new PIA management replaced Shuja Naqvi with Capt Ilyas as the DFO, but Ilyas’ contract would expire in June and he might be replaced with Civil Aviation Authority Flight Standards Director Capt Naveed Aziz. The PIA spokesman told Pakistan Today that the post of the DMD is not an important one, so it is possible that someone from the PIA management would succeed the current DMD.
He said that Pathan is a senior employee and could replace the current DMD, but he would have to seek permission for the post because he has crossed the approved age limit and is currently working on extension.
Sources said that this practice of placing “unsuitable” persons on key posts in the PIA is not uncommon since the former MD had appointed a junior employee, Khurram Mushtaq, as the Passenger and Sales General Manager (GM) because he is the son-in-law of former Defence Minister (late) Rao Sikander Iqbal.
Mushtaq had joined the PIA in 2004 and was the country manager in Saudi Arabia, whereas he was made the GM after retirement of then GM Rashid Farooqi.

. Pakistanswellwisher, it’s ‘you’re’, not ‘your’. So please work on your intelligence before commenting on someone else’s. You’d actually get your point across a little more effectively without foul language.
I hope this isn’t Mushtaq from Mason because if it is, you should be the last person to talk. You’re not God, so stop predicting the future. Since you have such strong statements, express it to people who have too much time like yourself. Also, your spelling sucks and you should be commenting on the article instead of those commenting. I feel disgusted reading this thread and see nothing, but immaturity and inconsideration from both of you. You’ve truly forgotten your Muslim identities and I hope Allah (SWT) will guide you in bettering yourself in your future opinions.
Salim Sayani, DMD PIAC is a big loss of PIA and there is no compensation of him for Airline. At the time Salim Sayani, DMD PIAC left PIA, it had 29 airworthiness aircraft but even after injecting of more than 75 Million $ for aircraft parts and engine manufacturing by Rao Qamar Salman, MD PIAC, Airline has only 26 airworthy aircraft. Salim Sayani, DMD PIAC was maintaining more aircraft without financial injection. Salim Sayani, DMD PIAC was appointed in PIAC for MRO and he was successfully completed its feasibility but airline did not provide cash flow to complete this project. In almost 3 years tenure of Salim Sayani, DMD PIAC he was tremendously increased the 3rd party business. Before Salim Sayani, DMD PIAC joining PIAC has only 16 External vendors to maintain their aircrafts but when he left it was more than 40 external vendors that was a big achievement to earn third party business revenue. Introducing PMA parts was also a big saving to maintain inventory in less rate as compare to expensive OEM parts.
