guardian.co.uk: 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."
