Bengaluru Man Gives Bomb Threat to SpiceJet Officials After Losing Wallet on Delhi Flight, Arrested

In a recent incident that unfolded with dramatic intensity, a 32-year-old businessman, Shreyansh Chamaria, found himself under scrutiny after resorting to an unusual expression of frustration. Chamaria, a textile merchant residing in Thanisandra, became embroiled in a bizarre episode following the loss of his wallet during a Delhi-Bengaluru flight with SpiceJet. What transpired next not only raised eyebrows but also led to legal consequences for Chamaria.

The narrative commenced on a seemingly ordinary Tuesday night as he disembarked from the Delhi flight at approximately 9:20 p.m. only to realise that his wallet was nowhere to be found. Distressed by the situation, he reached out to the SpiceJet call centre around 10:15 p.m. to report the missing wallet. However, dissatisfied with what he perceived as a nonchalant response from the airline’s staff, Chamaria took an unexpected turn in the conversation.

Expressing his discontent, he posed a hypothetical scenario to the call centre executive, questioning whether they would treat a bomb threat in his purse with the same indifference. The unexpected inquiry left the call centre executive bewildered, prompting them to inquire about the location of the alleged bomb. Chamaria cryptically responded, “Nahi bataunga, jab phatna hoga phat jayega (I won’t tell you, it will explode when it has to explode),” according to his statement reported by TOI.

Alarmed by this potential threat, the call centre executive promptly alerted airport authorities, triggering a comprehensive examination of the flight. However, the subsequent investigation debunked the bomb threat claim, revealing it to be a hoax. Furthermore, the authorities discovered Chamaria’s wallet on the aircraft at 11 p.m.

The aftermath saw Chamaria’s arrest, during which he clarified to the police that his intention was not to issue a bomb threat but rather to express discontent with the call centre’s response to his predicament. His concern stemmed from the wallet containing crucial ID proofs and credit and debit cards. However, Chamaria was later released on bail, leaving behind a bizarre and cautionary tale of how frustration can manifest in unexpected and regrettable ways.
