Man attempts to board flight using son’s ticket, caught
BENGALURU: A flyer, who tried to pass himself off as his son to board a flight to Kochi, was caught by the CISF personnel at Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) on Monday. This was the second such case of impersonation detected at the airport within a fortnight.
The incident occurred before 8 am when Abdul Kalam Mondal was on his way to board an Air Asia flight (I5-1983) scheduled to depart at 9.05 am. An airport source said, “The CISF officer got suspicious when he checked the passenger’s ticket and the Aadhaar card as ID proof.
The Aadhaar card was in the name of ‘Idrish Mondal’ with the address as Sonatikuri in Murshidabad district in West Bengal.” But there was some mismatch in the travel document details and the Aadhaar card, he added.
