After this, they could go anywhere in India. Their return was also from Delhi airport. However, both passengers were stopped during investigation at the Immigration point of the airport.

Official sources of the airport informed that both passengers will be sent back to Sharjah by the flight leaving late Thursday night.

According to airport management, the passengers have been kept in detention at the airport itself. They have no permission to go out. It may be pointed out that passengers coming from Sharjah and Dubai have been sent back from the city airport earlier too.

Passengers who were sent back earlier had come to the city on e-visa, whereas e-visa was not valid at the city airport. In such a situation, the passengers had to stay at the airport itself.
