Malindo Air denies operation offenses, lodges police report

KUALA LUMPUR, March 22, 2015:  Malindo Air has rubbished as “fake” a statement allegedly issued by the Department of Civil Aviation (DCA) that stated the airline was a given a warning after having committed 90 offenses in its operations.

Malindo Air chief executive officer Chandran Rama Muthy said the findings were untrue and has lodged a report on the matter.

“There is no such thing on the 90 findings, it’s all not true. We will issue an official statement on the matter tomorrow.

“We have also lodged a police report on this, this morning. It’s a serious issue and is damaging,” he told The Rakyat Post.

In the alleged DCA statement circulated, it was claimed that Malindo Air was given a last warning by the DCA after the company’s operational license expired on Feb 28.

It also alleged that during the renewal process, DCA, in its audit of the company, found 90 alleged offenses committed involving flight operations, aircraft maintenance, engineering, pilot licensing and safety.

“The DCA is extremely dissatisfied with the matter and only issued a temporary license of six months, with the condition that all 90 offenses must be rectified immediately,” the statement purportedly by DCA said.

“DCA also informed Malindo Air that all passengers who will board its flights after Aug 31 must be told of the possibility of flight cancellations,” claimed the statement.
