AHMEDABAD: Airport police arrested one Akshay Chaudhary, a resident of
Gandhinagar, who had entered the airport on a fake ticket of
Singapore Airline. Chaudhary had made changes in the ticket of his cousin brother.
In his complaint, CISF constable Bharat Dodiya, said that he was on duty on Friday night at Terminal 2 of the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport. He stated that one passenger approached him and requested to go out. But, he stated in the complaint that as per the rules, if any passenger was to come out of the airport after entering it, he had to come with the airline staff.
When the passenger insisted, he took the passenger to the Singapore Airline counter to check his ticket. On checking the ticket, it was revealed that the ticket was for one Abhaykumar Chaudhary and not in the name of Akshay Chaudhary.
The Singapore Airline staff informed the CISF that there was no ticket booked in the name of Akshay. On questioning, Akshay revealed that he had come with his cousin brother Abhay and to drop him inside the airport, he had edited his ticket.
Dodiya then detained Akshay and handed him over to the Airport police which arrested him for forgery.
The Airport police arrested Chaudhary after a case was registered under IPC 465 (forgery), 468 (forgery for purpose of cheating), 467 (forgery for security, will) 471 (using as genuine a forged document).
