Pak Interior Minister Rehman Malik arrives in Delhi
December 14, 2012
Rehman Malik, Pakistan's Interior Minister, arrived in Delhi nearly four
hours behind schedule because there was complete confusion over where
his plane should land.
Malik's office was reportedly told by
Indian officials in Islamabad that he could land at the Delhi's Palam
Technical Airport, often used by VIPs, reports
NDTV.
However, the Indian Air Force, which controls the airport, did not clear
the plane's arrival. While some sources said the Air Force had not been
informed of Rehman's arrival, others said that permission to land at
Palam was denied because the handling and clearing agent assigned to
deal with the Pakistani delegation was not cleared for the high-security
area.
