A security breach at the Juhu aerodrome last week — where at least two people were found in the operational area in the dead of the night without any identification or entry pass — has prompted the Airport Authority of India (AAI) to review its security cordon around the facility and replace some of the guards at the entrance.
“As of now, the guards have been taken off duty from the main gate and shifted to a location inside, but we have informed the Maharashtra State Guard Board, which is responsible for the security at Juhu airport, that some of the guards may have to be removed,” an official said. The incident occurred last Monday when an actor and two others, one of whom is an employee of a helicopter company based out of the Juhu aerodrome, reportedly gained access without any entry pass or a vehicle permit.
They were allegedly driving around the runway and the operational area in a vehicle a little after 2 am, despite the heavy downpour. This caught the attention of the guards near the ONGC helipad, who swung into action and questioned them.
