(vIndianz, April 12, 2010): A self styled godman, who threatened to blow up a Khajuraho-bound Jet Airways flight from Delhi, was arrested. The threat was confirmed by security officials as a hoax.

Vishwamitra, the godman, allegedly misbehaved with a woman passenger from a foreign country. An argument ensued between the woman and Vishwamitra, following which the airplane’s crew intervened. Vishwamitra then threatened to blow up the aircraft, saying that he had planted a bomb on the aircraft. “If you dare do anything against me, I will blow the aircraft up,” he threatened. The threat created panic among the 30 passengers on board. The plane landed in Varanasi and the passengers disembarked. The godman was arrested but he continued with his threat.
A six-hour search proved that the threat was a hoax.
