Passenger High On Bhang Tries To Open The Door On Flight
According to an article which was recently published by News18, the arrested passenger is 29 years old and is named Anil Patil. He was travelling with his friends from Indore. As per the article, the group was returning from a pilgrimage in Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh.
He is a resident of Chandragirinagar in Gajularamaram. Before boarding the flight, he reportedly consumed bhang. Soon after boarding the flight, the crew noticed his unusual behaviour and moved him to a different seat.
However, the passenger insisted on being seated next to his friends so he was moved again. Soon after, he again misbehaved, this time with another passenger. The crew also reported that he kept walking up and down the aisle for no conceivable reason when the flight was mid-air.

Right before the flight was about to land at the Rajiv Gandhi Internationa Airport or RGIA in Hyderabad, Patil got into an argument with a crew member. Then, when the pilot was getting ready to land the aircraft, Patil tried to open the door of the flight.
He was stopped by other crew members. Once the plane landed in the Hyderabad airport, he was handed over to the authorities and was arrested. It was claimed that he suffered from “health issues.” Medical reports were also submitted supporting the claims Patil was given bail.
