Bomb scare at Delhi airport

New Delhi: Security officials launched a thorough check at Delhi airport late Tuesday after a caller told an airline's call centre that he would trigger a bomb blast, police said. Airport officials said flight operations remained normal.
A security alert was issued at the Indira Gandhi International Airport soon after the call at 7 pm.
The security agencies, including Delhi Police and the Central Industrial Security Force, pressed the dog squad and the bomb disposal squad into service to sanitise the area.
