2 AI staffers caught stealing from luggage at IGI Airport

New Delhi CCTV cameras installed at the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport proved handy for the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) as they recovered goods stolen from a passenger’s registered baggage at the international terminal.
The accused worked as apron assistants for an airliner.
On October 18, Tapankar Gooptu, a passenger on inbound flight MK 744 from Mauritius, had put in a complaint with CISF saying his digital camera was missing from his registered baggage. “The crime and intelligence wing of CISF checked CCTV footage and two men were found fiddling with the complainant’s bag on belt no 3 at the baggage break-up area. The two suspects were located and identified as Dal Chand and Ram Singh. Both worked as apron assistants for Air India,” an airport official said.
Sources said on interrogation, the suspects confessed to having removed the complainant’s camera, which was later recovered from the bushes near Air India’s GSD complex. The two were handed over to Delhi Police.
