Last month, the Ahmedabad airport received a call claiming that Alliance Air's flight no. 91696 had a bomb. However, after officials checked the flight, the bomb threat call appeared to be fake. The flight was bound for Delhi from Ahmedabad and was about to take off.
On January 21, a chartered flight bound for Goa from the Russian capital, Moscow, was also diverted to Uzbekistan following a bomb threat.
