Hyderabad, July 18: An Emirates flight, EK 374, flying from Dubai to Bangkok, made an emergency landing at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA), Shamshabad, on Tuesday morning after a passenger suffered a cardiac arrest. The 19-year-old passenger, Ali Ibrahim Parwish Sangoor Al Balooshi, was attended to by airport doctors in the aircraft and was declared dead following which his body was shifted to the RGIA Apollo Hospital. The patient was a resident of Dubai.


The Emirates aircraft from Dubai landed at the Shamshabad airport at around 5.04am. Doctors at Apollo said the teenager suffered a cardiac arrest while on the flight. He was declared dead at 5.36am. Confirming the incident, Emirates officials in Dubai in their official statement said that the flight eventually departed from Hyderabad (for Bangkok) at around 6.10am. The officials, however, did not provide any other information about the deceased passenger. Police sources claimed that Al Balooshi was travelling to Bangkok with his parents for an obesity treatment. He weighed around 220 kgs.


The RGIA police registered a case under section 174 of the CrPC (unnatural death that leads to inquest and post-mortem) following a complaint lodged by Emirates. Police confirmed that the passenger died a natural death on the aircraft, thus ruling out any possibility of foul play. "After preliminary investigation and post-mortem, the body was handed over to his parents at around 12.30pm, who were also travelling with him," said D Durga Prasad, inspector, RGIA police station. The body was kept at the airport cargo thereafter. "The boy's parents took the body back to Dubai on a late night flight," the inspector added.

Mumbai, Feb 11: A 65-year-old woman was allegedly killed by her husband over debt and illness in suburban Powai here, police said on Tuesday.

The incident came to light when Sheela Ajit Lad was found dead by her neighbours at Sukh Shanti Co-operative Society at around 9.30 pm on Monday, an official said.

The victim was allegedly killed by her husband Ajit Lad, who hit her on the head with a heavy object, slit her wrists and strangled her to death, he said.

The accused absconded at around 7.30 pm, leaving a note at the crime scene, saying he was going to commit suicide and had killed his wife because he was heavily in debt and she was suffering from an ailment, the official said.

The childless couple lived alone in the apartment, he added.

"On the basis of the note, we have registered a case of murder against Ajit Lad and have launched a manhunt for him. We have not traced him or found his body as he had mentioned suicide in the note," deputy commissioner of police (DCP) Zone X Ankit Goyal said.
