Monday, September 07, 2009 12:53:00 PM, Agencies

Kolkata: A United Arab Emirates Air Force plane was detained at the airport here on Sunday after a large cache of arms and ammunition was discovered. Nine crew members have been detained for questioning.

 

The plane, bound for Hanyang in China from Abu Dhabi, landed at the Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport here for refuelling last night.

 

Airport sources said customs officials found the arms and ammunition inside the plane during a routine check.

 

The airport authority of India was informed and as the plane's crew did not inform the authorities here that the aircraft was carrying arms, its return flight order was cancelled and nine crew members were detained.

 

Late on Sunday night, a meeting was held with the airport authorities, customs officials, senior airforce officers and the UAE crew about the entire matter.

 

Finally, permission was granted to the plane to resume its flight this morning, sources said.
