In a worrying turn of events, an IndiGo flight from Mumbai to Muscat was placed under inspection due to a bomb threat, just hours after an Air India flight faced a similar scare.
IndiGo flight 6E-1275, scheduled to depart for Muscat, was redirected to an isolated bay for heightened security checks prior to takeoff, according to official sources. The airline confirmed that all standard operating procedures were followed, and passengers were given assistance and refreshments during the delay.
Earlier today, an Air India flight from Mumbai to New York had to be diverted to Delhi following a bomb threat, raising concerns among airport authorities and security agencies.
As investigations into both threats are ongoing, authorities remain on high alert. No further information has been released regarding the specifics of the threats or any potential links between the two incidents.
