Legal action threatened if strikes continue

The Bangladeshi Government has given Biman airline pilots until Saturday to end the strike or risk facing legal action.

Flights in the country’s state-owned airline were grounded for a second day yesterday.

All Biman Bangladesh Airline pilots are protesting over the government's suspension of four leaders of the pilot's union who opposed the terms under which the airline leased aircraft. Only flights carrying Muslim Haj pilgrims were operating.
