An Oman Air passenger plane which took off from Muscat for Chennai in south India diverted to the Mumbai international airport Monday afternoon after its crew reported bomb threat, said local media reports.

After an emergency landing, all the 110 passengers on board the Flight 857 plane of Oman Air were safely de-planed by police. Bomb disposal squad and other security personnel launched a thorough search for possible bomb, said local TV channel Times Now.
