The management of the national flag carrier, taking note of the incident, launched a probe to determine the cause of the door opening.

Earlier, in Jan last year, Pakistan International Airline (PIA) had to offload at least 37 people from its flight PK-702 as a woman passenger mistakenly opened the aircraft’s back door.

An Islamabad bound flight of PIA, with 393 passengers from Manchester, was delayed for over seven hours as a female passenger pulled the lever of the aircraft’s back door while taxiing of the plane.
