Late passenger makes hoax bomb call to delay plane
A businessman running behind schedule triggered a bomb scare on an plane in a desperate attempt to catch his flight, Indian police said today.
Vijay Khandelwal, 35, was stuck in a traffic jam on the way to New Delhi airport last week when he realised he would miss the IndiGo plane to Kolkata unless it was held up, senior police officerSatyendra Garg said.
Khandelwal was arrested after he confessed to making a hoax call on his mobile phone.
"Just to delay the flight's departure, he telephoned the call centre of the airline and announced there was a bomb in the aircraft," Mr Garg said.
Security officials at the airport were alerted, and began an major emergency operation to search passengers and luggage.
Police arrested Khandelwal by tracing his mobile number and taking a statement from his taxi driver, who had overheard him making the hoax call and refused to drop him at the airport.
Authorities declared the emergency over after 90 minutes and the plane took off four hours late - without Khandelwal.

Well this was really a weird idea to delay the plane, but one should not do such troublesome activities as its harmful for the creators as well as for the others also.
One should play prank because its for one but not like this one which create problem. Hope So that Mr. Khandelwal would had learn the lesson and you all would also learn some thing from it.
But without weirdness, craziness, life would be totally dull. So dont stop using your weird and crazy ideas in your practical life.
