A man was arrested at the Indira Gandhi International Airport after two live bullets were recovered from his baggage, officials said today.
In an incident that occurred yesterday, Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel posted at the airport detected two bullets of .32mm calibre loaded in the magazine from the baggage of one Vinay K.
He was supposed to take an Air India flight to Ahmedabad.
"Vinay (the flier) was asked to produce documents but could not do so," a CISF spokesperson said.
Carrying live bullets without proper documents is illegal under civil aviation rules.
The passenger was later handed over to Delhi Police, which booked him under various provisions of the Arms Act.
