Why did the emergency flight land in Pakistan? Indian authorities on Friday refused entry to 145 Indian passengers travelling by an Iraq Airways flight.
Indian aviation is now looking at its own people with suspicion. According to details, an Iraq Airways flight travelling from Iraq to Delhi had to make an emergency landing at Karachi Airport.
The reason for this emergency landing was the death of a passenger on board the Iraq Airways flight. The deceased was taken to a hospital near Karachi Airport after the Iraq Airways flight made an emergency landing in the port city of Pakistan.
After doctors at a Karachi hospital confirmed the passenger's death, the Iraq Airways flight was rerouted to Delhi. However, Indian airport authorities refused to allow the Iraq Airways flight to land at the Delhi Airport.
There were 145 Indian passengers on board the Iraq Airways flight.
