PBI Investigator of Gulf Air Pilot’s death allegedly threatened

Gulf Air Pilot Captain Mohannad Yousef Al Hindi fell unconscious at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport due to a sudden heart attack while wearing his uniform.

He was then transferred to United Hospital, where they misdiagnosed and delayed his treatment, which led to his death 8 hours later.

In a criminal case filed by the sister of Captain Al Hindi, the court directed the PBI and BMDC to submit investigation reports about the incident. PBI submitted the report on November 16, 2023, detailing the negligence of treatment in the hospital and the false statements that United Hospital and Gulf Air gave.

The investigation found that Captain Mohannad Al Hindi's arrival at the emergency room of United Hospital was at 4:30 am. Still, United Hospital reports and Gulf Air Co-Pilot Khalil and Country Manager Issa Shaah lied about the arrival time in their statements to PBI.
