13-year-old Afghan Boy Reaches Delhi Hiding In Landing Gear

New Delhi: A 13-year-old boy from Afghanistan’s Kunduz province stunned authorities after arriving in India hidden inside the landing gear compartment of Afghan Airlines flight KAM RQ-4401 from Kabul to Delhi. According to Indian media, the two-hour flight landed safely at Delhi airport, where crew members noticed the boy wandering near the aircraft and immediately alerted airport security. He was taken into custody and handed over to the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF). During preliminary questioning, the boy claimed he had boarded the aircraft out of sheer curiosity and did not realize the grave danger of his actions. He was later deported back to Afghanistan on the same flight. The airline’s security team inspected the landing gear compartment and discovered a small red speaker, believed to be the boy’s possession. After a detailed inspection, authorities confirmed the aircraft was safe for further operations.
