National Airline Fires Engineers’ Union President and Secretary-General After Missed Hearings

The carrier says the move followed an inquiry after the two skipped personal hearings.

Overview

  • An official notification issued on Nov. 6 orders the dismissal of SEAP leaders Abdullah Jadun and Owais Jadun.
  • The airline says both were given personal hearing dates on Nov. 4 and 5 before the CEO but did not appear.
  • Management states the action was taken under the carrier’s applicable rules following inquiries initiated in 2024.
  • SEAP leaders contend the dispute stems from engineers refusing to clear aircraft with defects and from pointing out rule violations.
  • The dismissed officials plan to challenge the decision in court, and unnamed sources link the timing to recent engineers’ protests.
