Court Martial Proceedings for IAF officers

Two officers, a Group Captain and a Wing Commander of the Indian Air Force will be facing court-martial proceedings, while four others, two Air Commodores and two newly commissioned Flight Lieutenants are due to face administrative action, for their role in the accidental downing of an IAF Mi-17 Helicopter in what is said to be a โ€˜friendly fireโ€™ incident.

The proceedings come just weeks after the newly appointed IAF Chief Air Marshall RKS Bhadauria had owned up to the mistake in his first press conference since his appointment saying it was a โ€œBig mistake on our part. We accept it.โ€ย  He had gone on to foreshadow the current development saying, โ€œOur missile had hit the helicopter, this has been established. Administrative action and disciplinary action is being taken.โ€

The downing of the IAFโ€™s Mi-17 helicopter according to several defence aviation experts, took place in the โ€œfog of warโ€ during the ensuing aerial โ€˜dogfightโ€™ between Indian and Pakistani fighters following the events of โ€˜Operation Bandarโ€™ commonly known as the โ€˜Balakot Airstrikesโ€™ the day before.
