Comair business rescue practitioners have lodged a court application to convert the company’s business rescue process into liquidation proceedings after not raising enough funds to keep it going. If the court grants the liquidation application, Comair ...

is set to be liquidated because its business rescue practitioners believe that the aviation company has no reasonable prospects of being rescued.

Additional funding of R1.4-billion has also been secured from commercial banks.
