The incident occurred on Wednesday morning, November 11, when crew members discovered a handwritten warning on the mirror inside the aircraft’s toilet shortly before departure, according to reports.
The flight, identified as Air India AI 772, was scheduled to depart Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport in Kolkata for Mumbai at approximately 10:20 am, with 147 passengers on board.
The message reportedly warned that the aircraft would be hijacked at 11:10 am, prompting the pilot to immediately alert Air Traffic Control (ATC).
Airport authorities subsequently activated emergency security protocols and moved the aircraft to an isolation bay for a thorough inspection.
All passengers and crew members were evacuated as a precaution, while security personnel, including bomb disposal specialists, were deployed to search the aircraft for suspicious objects or potential threats.
Airport officials confirmed that the necessary precautionary measures had been taken, as security agencies began investigating the incident to determine who wrote the threatening message.
Authorities were also expected to review CCTV footage and other available information to identify the person responsible.
