The Mumbai-New York flight was rerouted to Delhi on Monday evening.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<\/div>\n<p>The initial probe indicated that the teenager, from Rajnandgaon district, supposedly set up a fake profile on X and posted the bomb threat, then reached out to Mumbai\u2019s air traffic control. The threat was traced to a mobile phone in Rajnandgaon, leading to the minor\u2019s detention.<\/p>\n<p>Rajnandgaon police collaborated with Mumbai police in the inquiry. The boy is accused of hacking the X account of Fazaluddin, from the same district, to issue the threat. As a result, the flight had to make an emergency landing in Delhi, and all passengers were evacuated safely.<\/p>\n<p>Rajnandgaon\u2019s Superintendent of Police, Mohit Garg, stated, \u201cOn Monday, a bomb threat was made on X against an Air India Mumbai-New York flight, as well as IndiGo flights from Mumbai to Muscat and Jeddah.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Upon linking the tweet to Rajnandgaon, Raipur Cyber Cell and local police gathered electronic evidence. \u201cMumbai Police arrived in Rajnandgaon on Monday. With assistance from local police, a notice was served to the 17-year-old, his father, and the owner of the hacked X account, summoning them to Mumbai for questioning,\u201d Garg explained.<\/p>\n<p>The boy, recognized for his IT prowess, had been implicated in previous hacking incidents, including a local journalist\u2019s account, and had made a false bomb threat against a train, leading to an earlier case against him. The police stated, \u201cHe is notorious for raising false alarms about non-existent threats.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The police have confiscated the boy\u2019s laptop, electronic gadgets, and vehicle. He and his father have been transported to Mumbai for further inquiry. The investigation will proceed in Maharashtra.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-block sd-like jetpack-likes-widget-wrapper jetpack-likes-widget-unloaded\" id=\"like-post-wrapper-118324006-330851-6710045276d9d\" data-src=\"https:\/\/widgets.wp.com\/likes\/?ver=13.9.1#blog_id=118324006&amp;post_id=330851&amp;origin=pragativadi.com&amp;obj_id=118324006-330851-6710045276d9d&amp;n=1\" data-name=\"like-post-frame-118324006-330851-6710045276d9d\" data-title=\"Like or Reblog\">\n<h3 class=\"sd-title\">Like this:<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"button\"><span>Like<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"loading\">Loading&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"sd-text-color\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><span>Continue Reading<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] \u00a0 A 17-year-old from Chhattisgarh has been detained by Mumbai police for allegedly issuing a bomb threat to an Air India flight via social media.
