<p>The plane belonging to Pakistan&#8217;s national carrier has crashed shortly after take-off from the country&#8217;s north with about 40 people on board, officials said.</p>
<p>The Pakistan International Airlines plane crashed in a village near the town of Havelian, about 75 kilometres (45 miles) north west of the capital Islamabad, senior police officer Khurram Rasheed said.</p>
<p>There were no immediate details on casualties but Pakistan&#8217;s interior ministry dispatched a team with experts on identifying bodies through DNA tests.</p>
<p>State-run Pakistan Television showed a huge fire rising from the site of the crash, while villagers were seen standing nearby.</p>
<p>Shortly before the crash was confirmed, airline spokesman Daniyal Gilani said the ATR-42 aircraft carrying around 40 passengers and crew had lost touch with the control tower.</p>
<p>A local police official, Khursheed Tanoli, told state-run TV that the plane went down in a village in the north west and that rescuers are trying to reach the site of the crash.</p>
<p>The army said it dispatched troops and helicopters to the location.<br />
Resident Kashif Khan said he saw the debris of the crashed plane.</p>
