The call was made by an inebriated man who wanted to stop his family from leaving the country but ended up in the police net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

False bomb threat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The city resident called the city police control room with a threat to stop two of his family members from taking a flight to Dubai, which prompted the security agencies to conduct a thorough search of the Indigo flight, which was initially scheduled to take off at 7.20 am on Saturday, according to airport and police officials.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The security agencies thoroughly investigated the flight after receiving the threat call to see if any explosive devices had been hidden inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Officials and others breathed a sigh of relief when it was discovered that there were no such items on the aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the call was being tracked, a man in the city who wanted to prevent his relatives from travelling to Dubai was apprehended by the police.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later in the day, the flight will continue on to its destination<\/em>, according to the officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accommodations for the flight’s 180 passengers and crew members were provided.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similar bomb threat incident<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On August 7, an IndiGo flight carrying more than 170 passengers entered full emergency mode<\/em>, after a threatening note was discovered in the back restroom <\/strong>just before landing. Recently, one of the airline’s flights was grounded in Patna after a passenger allegedly claimed to be carrying a bomb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The message, which was written in Hindi on tissue paper and discovered by IndiGo staff in the back toilet, advised against landing the aircraft because it was carrying a bomb.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After immediately informing the flight captain, security at Bengaluru airport was contacted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each passenger was required to submit a writing sample, and the Bomb Disposal and Detection squad, dog squad, and other security personnel carried out all necessary checks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
