It has come to our attention that certain sections of the international media are repeatedly attempting to draw conclusions through selective and unverified reporting, said AAIB on the deadly Air India Boeing plane crash last month that killed 260 people.
“Such actions are irresponsible, especially while the investigation remains ongoing. We urge both the public and the media to refrain from spreading premature narratives that risk undermining the integrity of the investigative process.”
The purpose of the AAIB’s investigation and preliminary report is to provide information about ‘WHAT’ happened, the investigating agency said.
AAIB added that the preliminary report has to be seen in this light. “At this stage, it is too early to reach to any definite conclusions. The investigation by AAIB is still not complete. The Final Investigation Report will come out with root causes and recommendations.”
Earlier on Thursday, the Wall Street Journal reported that a cockpit recording of dialogue between the two pilots of the flight indicated that the captain cut the flow of fuel to the plane’s engines.
