Regarding Shaheen Airlines issue, Secretary Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony Muhammad Mushtaq Ahmed said that the Ministry has written a letter to CAA to black list Shaheen Air. The Ministry has also asked the concerned authorities to put the names of management of Shaheen Airline on Exit Control List (ECL). He said Shaheen Air was given the load of 30,526 hujjaj from different places of departure (PODs) for Hajj 2018 and as per agreement, the first installment of 35 percent advance amounting to Rs 960,6912,00 was released to SAI out of a total of Rs 2,744,832,000. Shaheen Airline failed to provide the final flight schedule in given time period, as a result, the load of SAI was distributed amongst other airlines due to time constraint.

Responding to a question, he said no other airlines except SAI was ready to airlift 5,000 hujjaj from Quetta airport. The Ministry suffered an additional loss of Rs 184,230,000. Shaheen Air International completely failed to act as per agreement. Shaheen Airlines did not have aircraft to land at Quetta Airport, he told.
