Let us hope that the British team did not notice the non functional vehicle scanner before the ramp which proudly sports the sticker, "gift from people of Japan".
Re: British Security Team Visit Karachi Airport and PIA Head Office
They should have visited Lahore and Islamabad airports - there aren't many flights coming to the UK from Karachi but there are quite a few flights coming to the UK from Islamabad.
