SHILLONG, Oct 25: An Umroi-bound SpiceJet flight from New Delhi was forced to make an emergency landing at the Guwahati Airport following a bomb threat on Friday.
Officials from AAI confirmed that a SpiceJet flight from New Delhi to Umroi carrying 75 passengers made an emergency touchdown at the Guwahati Airport at around 1 pm on Friday.
Confirming that no explosives were found inside the flight, officials informed that the threat came from an X (formerly Twitter) account and the Air Traffic Control alerted the security personnel after which the flight made an emergency landing in Guwahati.
Upon landing, the aircraft was quickly moved to a secure section of the tarmac, and security forces undertook an extensive sweep, leaving no stone unturned to ensure passengers’ safety.
This incident marks the sixth bomb threat targeting SpiceJet flights in recent days, as the country faces a troubling surge with over 250 such hoax bomb threats disrupting airlines across the country.
