Nedumbassery police detained a passenger, Suhaib, for allegedly making a false bomb threat against Air India flight AI 149 bound for London from Kochi. The threat, reported to Air India’s call center, prompted security protocols at Cochin International Airport early on June 25. After intercepting Suhaib during check-in with his family, authorities conducted extensive security checks and moved the aircraft to a secure location before clearing it for departure. Suhaib faces charges under IPC Section 506 and Kerala Police Act 118(b), with investigations ongoing into his motives.
