Right before the departure of an Ahmedad-Delhi flight, the Ahmedabad Police on Tuesday received information about a bomb threat.
The caller allegedly had claimed that there was a bomb on an Ahmedabad-Delhi flight.
The Ahmedabad airport, which had received the call alleging a bomb threat, alerted the police and they initiated action against the man who made the hoax call instantly.
According to the investigating team, it was a hoax call. The flight was supposed to depart at 5:20 pm. One of the passengers was left to board and the airport authorities called him to remind him about the flight departure.
It has been reported that the person who received the call said, ‘Why should I come? I don’t want to die. There is a bomb on your flight’, officials said.
When the person was asked to reveal his identity, he promptly cut the call.
As airport authorities informed the police, the passenger who was yet to board rushed to the counter.He informed the authorities that his ticket was booked by his company’s admin department and the phone number and email address used for the ticket booking were not his.
Meanwhile, the police initiated action against the caller who gave false information about a bomb onboard a Delhi-Ahmedabad flight.
