Panel expected to call on several key figures in bid to prevent repeat of deadly crash north of Sao Paulo.
Brazil’s Congress has announced the formation of a committee to oversee an investigation into a plane crash earlier this month that killed 62 people.
Lower House Speaker Arthur Lira authorised the installation of a 37-person committee last week, tasked with tracking an inquiry by Cenipa, a body that investigates aviation accidents.
The lower house is expected to decide who to summon to speak before the panel on Tuesday.
“Our intention is not to carry out a witch-hunt,” Congressman Nelsinho Padovani said. “We want to propose measures so it does not happen again.”
