India's Jet Airways Kathmandu flight evacuated, second time this week
The incident comes two days after the same Jet Airways' Delhi-Kathmandu 9W 260 flight was delayed due to a security scare, but investigations later found nothing unusual.
"It is the same flight. This is something that doesn't happen normally," a company spokesman said. Police at Delhi's international airport were not immediately available for comment on what caused the security scare. Indian media said police received an anonymous call warning bombs were on two aircraft.
The other aircraft, operated by Air India [AIN.UL], was also headed to Nepal's capital Kathmandu. The plane was taken to a bay area and security personnel screened the baggage, the company said on its Twitter account.
Security was been beefed up across India this week because of Tuesday's Republic Day parade, at which French President Francois Hollande was the guest of honour.
