Just today twenty-eight travelers coming from a Gulf state tested positive for coronavirus at the Bacha Khan International Aiport, based on a report.
This news has arrived one day after the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) canceled the permit of a private carrier for breaching coronavirus SOPs given out by the government.
The carrier had brought in 24 travelers, who had tested positive for coronavirus, from Dubai to Peshawar in this time.
Bacha Khan International Airport’s Chief Operating Officer (COO) Obaid-ur-Rehman Abbasi said quick antigen tests were carried out on 130 passengers who came in at the airport from Bahrain.
“The passengers who tested positive for the virus have been handed over to the district administration,” he said, further mentioning that several parts of the airport had also been sanitized after this happening.
