IndiGo flight diverted to Mumbai, 2 detained for unruly behavior

An IndiGo Airlines flight from Dubai to Kozhikode had to be diverted to Mumbai after a man was accused by his co-passengers of making pro-Islamic State (ISIS) slogans.
According to Mumbai Police, two people have been detained for unruly behaviour and being interrogated. They have not been identified yet.
The Mumbai airport police, however, is not sure if pro-ISIS slogans were raised on the flight. "Two passengers have been detained after the airlines complained of passengers fighting on board. We can't confirm ISIS slogans right now," Airport Police DCP told ANI.
"A case will be lodged against them on the basis of statements made by the detained passengers and crew members," a police official said.
IndiGo has also not hinted at any terror link to the incident. "A passenger suddenly started misbehaving with the crew, jumped on the forward cart (used for food and on board merchandise), and sat on it," the airline said in a statement.
