‘Was depressed for 6 yrs’: When 2 Punjab brothers hid in plane landing gear; one lived to tell the tale

A 13-year-old Afghan boy triggered a security alert at Delhi Airport after stowing away in the landing gear of a Kam Air flight from Kabul. Discovered upon arrival, he had journeyed without a ticket. The incident echoes a tragic 1996 event where two brothers attempted a similar feat, resulting in one brother’s death from hypothermia during a flight to London.
