An Italian report alleges the Air India pilot deliberately shut off both engines, but India hasn’t confirmed it.
An Italian report citing unnamed Western aviation sources claims the final investigation into the June 12, 2025, Air India Flight 171 crash near Ahmedabad will conclude that one of the pilots intentionally shut off both engines by turning off the fuel switches, based on cockpit voice recordings and flight data showing no mechanical failure.
Investigators, including U.S. experts, found no technical explanation for the simultaneous engine failure and suggest the captain, Sumeet Sabharwal, likely acted deliberately, though Indian authorities have not confirmed the findings.
The report marks a shift from earlier theories and is attributed to pressure to maintain India’s aviation safety rating.
The pilots’ union and Sabharwal’s family reject the narrative, calling it biased and demanding an independent inquiry.
The final report remains pending.
