The chief executive of defense research technology firm
QinetiQ
has quit the company just hours after it was criticized by the
official report into a 2006
Nimrod
plane crash in Afghanistan, which claimed 14 lives.
Graham
Love, who has run the company for the last four years, is
departing on 30 November. His replacement, Leo Quinn, is the
former chief executive of
bank-note maker
DeLaRue."We have been looking at succession planning for
over a year," a company spokesman said. "[It is] mistaken to
directly link the two events."
