The Biman flight, carrying the Prime Minister, had to make an emergency landing at Ashgabat International Airport in Turkmenistan on her way to Budapest on November 27 following low oil pressure to its engine.
Following its necessary repair work, the flight left Ashgabat Airport after a delay of over four hours.
Three separate probe committees were formed over the glitch in the flight carrying the Prime Minister. Biman Bangladesh Airlines, Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh (CAAB) and Civil Aviation and Tourism Ministry formed the committees.
