The statement said, “A suspect wanted in India was searched in coordination with local authorities after receiving an alert from the Chennai region control center about riding on the plane. The aircraft was thoroughly examined and later approved for further operations. After the attacks in Pahalgam on 22 April, security measures were initiated after receiving a threatening email to Chennai Airport officials amidst strong vigilance in the country, claiming that five Lashkar terrorists were riding in the Sri Lankan Airlines plane.
The Chief Security Officer received a threatening mail at 11.05 am, which was placed in the ‘non-specific’ category. It wrote, “The five South Indian men at UL 122 (9.55 am) are members of the Lashkar. Clean profile, well trained, no doubt.” By the time the email was received, the aircraft had already left, and the information was given to the Colombo Airport, where the passengers were investigated intensively, and they were landed by the aircraft. However, officials said that no suspicious person or activity was found, as the message later came out of a deception.
