Not compulsory for govt to release Double Six tragedy report, says Transport Minister

KUALA LUMPUR: It was never compulsory for the government to reveal the findings of the 1976 Double Six tragedy to the public, says the Transport Ministry.

Minister Anthony Loke said this was because the tragedy occurred in 1976, when the Fourth Edition Annex 13, Aircraft Accident and Incident Investigation, International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO Annex 13) was in use, with the ruling stating there was no need to publicise the report.
