Kolkata airport faces second bomb threat in a day— suspicious message written with ‘lipstick’

Hours after a Shillong-bound IndiGo flight was grounded due to a bomb threat that was later confirmed to be a hoax, another security alert emerged on Saturday evening when a suspicious message was found in the toilet of a Dibrugarh-Kolkata flight, PTI reported, citing officials.

“The IndiGo flight 6E 6894 landed safely at 7.37 pm at Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport and was immediately taken to the isolation bay as per security protocol. All passengers were safely deboarded,” the statement said.
