Bomb threat to IndiGo flight

A bomb threat email sent to senior authorities at Delhi Airport in the early hours of Tuesday created panic regarding an IndiGo flight traveling from Kuwait to Hyderabad. Officials immediately alerted the pilot, following which the flight originally scheduled to land at Hyderabad’s Shamshabad Airport was diverted to Mumbai as a safety measure.

Once the aircraft landed in Mumbai, passengers were promptly deboarded and moved to a secure area. Bomb squad and security teams began a thorough inspection of the plane. The flight was originally expected to arrive in Hyderabad at 8:10 AM.

The sudden threat caused significant anxiety among passengers and crew members. Authorities at both Shamshabad and Mumbai airports are reviewing the situation. IndiGo has not yet disclosed the exact number of passengers or crew on board.
