ISLAMABAD, MAY 23  – An inquiry will be conducted within three months and as soon as possible, we will be handing over the insurance money and one million rupees in compensation to the families who lost their loved ones in the PIA PK-8303, said Ghulam Sarwar Khan, the federal minister for aviation, at a press conference Saturday afternoon.
