New Delhi: On Sunday evening, in a major security breach, a school boy entered the tarmac (of IG Airport) from a gate near the secondary runway used by vehicles to access technical areas. He managed to walk right up to the place in front of the domestic arrival terminals where planes are parked.
A Kingfisher spokesperson said the boy was not carrying any airport entry pass. Instead they found a school ID card in his pocket and then informed the CISF.
The CISF has ordered an inquiry into this lapse. "Action will be taken against those found guilty. The boy is an 18-year-old student of Class XI,"said a senior official.
Ironically, the boy seems to have entered from a gate where a high-tech security system is being installed.
While this may be a "harmless"student who entered by mistake, airlines are clearly worried.
