The Link PNG DHC -8 aircraft was burned down at the Mendi airport, Southern Highlands Province following an election petition decision.
The aircraft reportedly suffered damages when rioters invaded the tarmac, and National Airports Corporation(NAC) has also closed the airport.
Link PNG is suspending flights also to Tari and Wapenamanda until further notice, associated with these developments.
