12‑year‑old’s bomb claim on Ahmedabad‑Hyderabad flight leads to inspection

A 12‑year‑old schoolgirl said there was a bomb on a flight from Ahmedabad to Hyderabad, and a cabin crew member who heard her informed the pilot, after which security agencies were alerted. The aircraft was inspected at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport and no suspicious or objectionable items were found; police said the girl is a minor and the remark was made without malicious intent, so no case was filed, and school teachers later counseled her to avoid such pranks.
