Major security lapse at Delhi's IGI airport as passengers from Kabul taken to wrong terminal

[BHarwana]

In a major security lapse at the Indira Gandhi International Airport in New Delhi, a SpiceJet flight carrying passengers from Kabul ferried them to the wrong terminal raising security alarm.

SpiceJet's SG 022 flight, on Thursday, landed at the IGI airport. The bus driver, who was supposed to carry the passengers to terminal T3 for immigration check, took them to the newly-renovated T2, a report in the Times of India said.

The airline realised its mistake after some passengers raised an alarm.

“Some of the passengers realised they had come to the wrong terminal after entering T2. An alarm was raised and the airline also realised its mistake and gathered the passengers to take them back to T3,” the report quoted a source as saying. “The security lapse was detected in time, otherwise passengers could have exited the building without proper immigration checks,” the source added.

Well T2 is a domestic terminal with no immigration check point.

T2 is an easy way to walk out of Airport.

Airports work like clockwork. Maybe I am thinking of Heathrow.
