In the news was this great screw-up by Air India,that got them to transport Afghans to UK,without knowing they were on board.Afghans ofcourse seeked refugee status.
You would think the Indians learnt from the SEP 11th Ordeal.
This the last thing passengers want to hear,especially in these times,well there goes further downturn in business for good old Air India.
So much for their fuss on security on their line of control(Kashmir)????
Wonder what they would have done ifthese 4 Afghans turned the Jet into a missile ,like in New York???
Apparently,the international sector to London preceeded with a domestic one,with a transit,so that means no transit passenger check or count,no cleaning of toilets and so on.
The maharajah's palace in the sky doesnt sound like one,more like the shacks you see around the country I would say!!!
The Afghans were hiding in the toilet???? :mad:

It was reported that there were four Afgan nationals on board and two of them had travel documents.The other two had got on board without any kind of travel documents.They have currently asked for asylum in the UK and the UK authorities are looking into their application as well as the authenticity of the documents.
How or when they got on board is being looked into but clearly shows flaws in the security system.
