Crazy in Love
That’s what Mir Raza Mehdi discovered while trying to fly from Bengaluru to Mumbai after an argument with his girlfriend, Indra Rajwar, who called the Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) helpline to report that her paramour had a bomb in his bag. The KIA police swiftly swung into action and apprehended Mehdi but after a thorough search, came up with zilch. Turns out, Rajwar didn’t want her boyfriend to leave town. Both had tickets to Mumbai booked on different flights and were spotted conversing in the departure lounge before Rajwar made the call. She was taken to the police station where she admitted to the hoax and was booked under the Indian Penal Code for causing public mischief. Hey, no one said being in love is easy— or free of criminal misgivings, apparently!
