PIA Flight PK 756 Hit by Bullets -JackAsses who made it Possible

Flight PK-756 , was an Airbus A-310 and Registration Number AP-BGN was Pakistan Airline Flight from Riyadh to Peshawar on Ill fated day of 24 June 2014 and was coming from Riyadh Saudia Arabia and was to land at Night about 2300 Hrs at Peshawar Bach Khan International Airport which is Right in middle of Peshawar. 

A PIA  310 in Low Flight 



As Aircraft Airbus was A310 was flying at an altitude of 700-750 feet at the time of the attack and was in a landing position with its Landing gear down flown by Experience Captain Tariq Chaudhry . 

The plane was flying over an Area we call Semi -Tribal FR Peshawar ( Tribal Area under Direct control of Islamabad) , the Airplane while approaching the Runway from South was heading North towards the runway of Bacha Khan International Airport. 

while being just 2-3 Minutes on it Landing Approach while only less then 1000 Feet ( As Rifle Bullets have less then 1000 to 1500 Feet effective range ) away it was Under Villages that are near Badabair , Matani FR Peshawar Area also called as Masho Khel or Matani Area and Achini Villages. 

These Villeges are in FR Peshwar which forms a buffer area between Khyber Agency tribal Area and Pakhtunkhwa settled Area . 

 At this time the Aircraft was on top of an Area that is Neither part of FATA and Neither Settled Area and it is called FR Peshawar , Technically being inside the Border of Pakhtunkhwa but it is left as No Mans land Frontier Area short Abbreviated as FR area .


FATA and FR Areas Which are more near to Pakhtunkhwa Cities and Especially Peshawar and its Airport 

As the Flight PK-756 ,Approached the Peshawar Airport and was just 2-3 Minutes from Touch down Landing it was hit by Tracer Bullets to see where it Hits the Aircraft from , first After it was Ascertained that it was hitting the Aircraft Right on Target Real Bullets were fired at the Aircraft. 

The Bullet hit the Engines and the Body of Aircraft but since the Cargo was in Middle many passengers were saved and it did not Hit them, neither the Fuel laden Tanks were hit luckily 

It was at the Rear End in Gally Flight Steward Mr Ijaz Afridi ( Belonging to Same Area of khyber Agency hit by his own Tribesmen Ironically ) and Wajid Khan were sitting as well as Mrs Muqnoon Begum sitting on 59-J Seat along with her 9 Year Old daughte sitting Besides her( Resident of Peshawar Hayatabad belonging to Nowshera)  , her 9 year old daughter wanted to sit near the Window seat so they switched the seats and Maqnoon Begum sat on 59-J while her daughters was watching the Outside view from window.

As PK-756 was only 3 Minutes away or about 5.6 Km from the Airport  , the Bullets struck the belly of Aircraft from below and whole FR Peshawar Tribal Area has no police or Paramilitry Force Army and Nothing to stop them , they were successful and hit the Aircraft with Almost 12 Bullets , it hit the Engine on Port side and also the Inside of A310 and Passenger a Lady Who was returning to see her son in Saudia an had a 9 Year old daughter accompanying her in next seat .

Seat of Lady Mr Maqnoon who was sitting on this seat she had changed the seat with her daughter sitting now at Window seat other wise her 9 Year old daughter would have died 


She was hit in head after Bullet Ricocheting the Aircraft she was Dead Immediately and Blood was filled all over the seat and the cabin .

Her 9 Year old daughter was sitting on her side started crying , my mother is dead and my mother is dead !!!!!!!!! in Pashto and it was such a horrible scene that at back of last seat in Jump Seat two crew were sitting one was Mr Wajid and other Mr Ijaz Afridi . Panic Griped the aircraft and Seat belt signs were on and the Mr Wajid stewards Lept towards the captain Mr Tariq Chaudhry cockpit to inform him that a women just died with a Bullet at the back .

Blood Spilled of Steward Ijaz Afridi in Gally if it was not Pressure Bandage and First Aid techniques of Crew and Prompt Taking to CMH He would have died . 


Police officials say 50-60 rounds were fired at the airplane,but only 10 and 12 hit the Airplane and a bullet from one hit Maqnoon Begum in the head.  the plane, carrying 178 passengers and crew members, was attacked by local militants over FR Peshawar Area after they came from AKA Khel Area of tirbal Area of Khyber Agency to FR Peshawar and the attackers used SMGs Kalshinokov AK-47 and M-16 Bullets as well . 
When he reached the Cockpit door he told captain they looked at his Blood stained uniform and told him he is bleeding from his leg as well .

Then Mr Wajid khan glanced down ward and saw that he is bleeding from the leg downward as well , and then when he came back to back Gally he realized that his colleague Mr Ijaz Afridi is also shot three times with Bullet Piercing the jaw and his chest and other parts of body .

IT as horrible scene and the Blood was all  over the Aircraft . Immediately after the Landing and Ambulance was called and lady and the two crew were taken in Ambulances to CMH  Hospital of Peshawar , and straight to Operating Table to save their lives.

Luckily the Bullet hit the engines and the aircraft and also the People but the Tanks were saved and Aircraft did not catch fire and landing was safe and sound .

Army and Police surrounded the Airport and search Operation was conducted mainly Futile Talking to The Express Tribune, a Badhaber police official said the airliner was attacked with an AK-47 rifle, adding the attackers used incendiary bullets.

“Around 3am on Wednesday morning, police and army troops cordoned off the area and started a door-to-door search operation which ended at 9am,” said the official, adding 227 suspects were arrested from these villages. Those arrested have been shifted to Government Girls High School, Badhaber for interrogation due to the non-availability of another building large enough to accommodate them.

“People saw the airliner being fired upon and we suspect involvement of local militant groups,” said the police official.

The residents, however, were not happy about a search operation conducted without women police constables. They maintained that this was against local traditions and could provoke people to extend support to militants rather than cooperate with law enforcement agencies.

“Militants cross the Khyber Agency border at night, and after roaming around in the area for several hours, they go back to Akka Khel. The police should be blocking entry points along the border instead of going for such operations,” said an elder of Masho Khel requesting anonymity.

It has No Police as Pakistan Laws don't Apply there and No Army or even Rangers (what we call FC or Frontier Corps under Pakistan Army Officers) are stationed there . It is in fact so strange that even it is completely empty of any Pakistan Government even more then Adjacent FATA ( Federally Administered tribal Area controlled from Islamabad Central Government) . 


History 

Historically the Bacha Khan International Airport was made by British in 1927, traces its origins to 1927 when there was a small airfield that catered to much of the British Empire and aircraft that were either traveling onwards to the east (e.g. to China and Malaya/Singapore) or west (e.g. Europe and America). For this reason the city was given the nickname "Gateway to the East" because it linked the traditional oriental culture to modern occidental traditions.

The airport only gained much importance after the independence of Pakistan from the British Raj. The Civil Aviation Authority of Pakistan(CAA) and the Pakistan Air Force started to use the airfield jointly for both military and civil operations. There were countless flights operated to and from Pakistan's largest city, Karachi, as well as other cities within the newly formed state.
The airport achieved international status in 1965 when the first flight was operated from Kabul, Afghanistan to Peshawar. The flight was operated by the national flag carrier,Pakistan International Airlines (PIA). As years went on the airport grew with more flights and aircraft and relative upgrade was carried out from time to time. It was not until 1981 that the CAA extended the terminal to meet future needs for the next decade and to meet the estimated growth of passengers. The apron was developed fully by 1986, where the airport was able to handle four wide body aircraft and two small narrow body aircraft at one time.
it is the fourth busiest airport in Pakistan. One unusual feature is that one end of the main runway is crossed by a railway line – the seldom-used Khyber train safarito Landi Kotal in the Khyber Pass. The airport was renamed on 27 January 2012 after Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan (also known as Bacha Khan), a Pashtun nationalist political leader.

Past Accident of Similar Nature : 

It may be Noted that Media saying again and again that this is unprecedented while it was not as similar event happened a long time before and it also involved a crash of an  Aircraft as well , it F-27 Fokker that actually crashed in the same Area when it was hit by Bullets from below and Aircraft crashed and Killing a lot of People . On 23 October 1986, a Fokker F-27 aircraft crashed during approach to Peshawar Airport. Of the 54 passengers and crew on board, 13 were killed in the accident, and it was suspected that Bullet struck the Aircraft . 


Who are Responsible - The Jack Asses : 


PM Nawaz Sharif Even with 75% Representation Dont want to Change FR area or FATA to Settled Areas is Jack Ass Number 1 . 

A: JACK ASS NUMBER 1 

It may be Noted that few days Back Karachi Airport was also attacked and it was decided that the Provincial Government and Police is responsible for controlling the Area around the Airport and in other cities Security was Beefed up , but in Peshawar there are special Circumstances of these FR Areas which are actually 6 in number. 

As the Government of Pakistan since last 67 Year had kept these Areas as such and even Pakhtunkhwa Police were Under staffed as about 300 Platoons of this Police called Frontier constabulary is stationed in Islamabad in Diplomatic Area of Red zone since 1992. 

Although for last 10 Year the ANP of Awami National Party was asking for Frontier Police constabulary to be returned to Province even when it is under Attack by Taliban with 400 to 500 Terrorist incidents occurring every Year , while in Punjab these Incidents are not even in 10,s . 

The present PTI Government of Imran Khan ( Also Nick Name as Taliban Khan) does not even recognize this as a problem and has Leaning towards the Taliban Terrorist and most of its leader come from thier rank and file as Ex -Jamaat Islami Leaders like Shah Farman , Asad Qaiser , Dr Alvi , Punjab President of PTI and even Most of its other countless Leader come from Jamaat Islami and its youth wing Shababi Mili Provided all the Leadership to PTI and also to Taliban as it Brain and class Room study comes from Punjab.  

PML and PM Nawaz ( Mian Taliban Sharif ) role as Jack Ass:

1. Not Changing the Status of 6 FR Areas under Direct Pathway of the Aircraft and leaving as Vacant area for Terrorist and Militants is not forgivable and culpable to being part of Terrorist Network that is why Imran khan is Earned the title of Taliban Khan .

2. Not Asking for Frontier Constabulary 300 Platoon to come to Pakhtunkhwa and Guard the 6 FR areas for which they are made . 

3. Not Maintaing Police or Frontier Corps/ Rangers check post in wake of Path way of Aircrafts and now when I am writing this has still not been done . 

4. Not Visiting Peshawar even once and looking after the Situation 




Imran Khan ( Taliban) don't care about Pakhtunkhwa he want to Rule as PM only or die he doesn't want to call the Constabulary back to under Policed Pakhtunkhwa Province and Neither he wants to Change No Man Land FR area status as well is Jack Ass number 2 

B: JACK ASS NUMBER 2

It is Ironic Neither the PTI Government of Imran khan Either complained or Neither condemned the Taliban Terrorists and  Lady Maqnoon Begum who hailed from Nowshera from Kaka Sahib was laid to rest on Wednesday in Hayatabad Peshawar in Phase 6 . This Behavior is booth Abnormal and foolish from Imran khan a cricketer Playboy turned Politician. 

The Airport was shut down and most of flights were turned to Islamabad and Lahore and Bach Khan Airport was shut down 

PTI and Imran Khan role in :

1. Not Changing the Status of 6 FR Areas under Direct Pathway of the Aircraft and leaving as Vacant area for Terrorist and Militants is not forgivable and culpable to being part of Terrorist Network that is why Imran khan is Earned the title of Taliban Khan .

2. Not Asking for Frontier Constabulary 300 Platoon to come to Pakhtunkhwa and Guard the 6 FR areas for which they are made . 

3. Not Mainting Police or Frontier Corps/ Rangers check post in wake of Path way of Aircrafts and now when I am writing this has still not been done . 

4. Not Visiting Peshawar even once and looking after the Situation


CJACK ASS NUMBER 3

Corps Commander Peshawar has only deployed army inside the cantonment Area only and he care no a shit about the FR Peshawar Vacant Area and he can deploy half a Regiment in that area of Badhaber area and so that Khyber Agency Militants cannot come here is Jack Ass no 3. 


It is strange that 

Pakistan Amy when started Operation in Waziristan it did nothing about the poor citizens of Peshawar Pakhtunkhwa and no extra Measure were seen and as Pointed out earlier if Army is deployed in Badhabar Suleman Khel  region and it stops the coming of Militant from Khyber Agency into that FR Peshawar area . 

A simple Army check Post and and simple deployment of one Regiment of Army can do the trick and make live of People Here are the Measures one can take :

1. A simple check posts of Army between the FATA and FR area or FATA and Settled Areas . 

2. Making of settled area of 6 FR areas as they are situated inside of Pakhtunkhwa and are outside of Tribal area of FATA and are not governed by either Province of Pakhtunkhwa or Tribal area administration of FATA secreatariate in Islamabad . 

3 . After making Police station inside of it as Police is best solotion for inteligenxe and control , then army and FC which cannot Function as Police . 

4. Frontier constabilary should be called back from Islamabad and it should be allowed to do it duty here for which it has been made . It should not do its VIP  duty in diplomatic enclave . 

5. FC head quarter should be shifted to FR areas as from Balhisar fort which is our heritage and shifted as Cantonmnet to Fr Areas.
