New Delhi: The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has identified 13 pilots obtaining their pilot licences on the basis of forged marksheets.
The DGCA has filed complaints in all these cases with the Crime Branch of Delhi Police, authorities said on Tuesday.
DGCA authorities claimed that except for six all Airline Transport Pilot Licences (ATPL) have been found to be genuine. However, an ongoing verification has detected seven Commercial Pilot Licences obtained by using forged result cards, they said.
The Delhi Police has already arrested three DGCA officials along with other accused involved in the crime and the investigations to find other accused is in full swing. The DGCA detected the first case of obtaining pilot licence by a dubious means after it received a complaint against IndiGo pilot Captain Parminder Kaur Gulati. The investigation led to her arrest on March 8.
Four days later, J K Verma of Air India was arrested for using forged mark sheets to obtain CPL. Then a series of arrests were made. Two SpiceJet pilots — Anoop Choudhary and Amit Moondra – were also arrested again.
