An Ahmedabad-bound passenger was apprehended at the Delhi airport for allegedly carrying five live bullets in his bag, an official said.
The man, identified as Gurjinder S, was going through security checks at the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) airport yesterday at about 1:25 pm when a Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel detected a "bullet-like object" in his luggage, said a senior official involved in airport security.
"Five live bullets were recovered from his bag. He was handed over to the police as he could not produce valid documents for carrying the bullets," he said.
Carrying arms and ammunition on board an aircraft without authorisation is banned.
