New Delhi, September 29: An unidentified person called up the police today claiming that a bomb had been placed on a flight to Kathmandu after which an Air Sahara flight to Nepal’s capital was delayed.
The flight, which was scheduled to depart at 1315 IST, was being searched by bomb and dog squads, airport sources said.
The person who had made the phone call from a PCO did not specify on which flight the bomb had been placed, police sources said.
But as the Air Sahara flight was the only scheduled to leave for Kathmandu at the time, it was being searched, they added.
