CHENNAI: A 14-year-old boy had a free run for a while at the `highly fortified` Chennai airport on Friday morning before security agencies managed to catch him.
The boy, yet to be identified, entered the aircraft parking area through Gate 10, a VVIP entrance that is supposed to be the most guarded gate. He was allegedly under the influence of drugs. Airport officials said the boy managed to enter the compound scaling a 10-foot-high gate at the northern end, near Gate No. 6. "He was first spotted by the airport staff near a parked aircraft. We immediately informed the CISF but he had disappeared by then," said an airport official.
Later, after he was spotted by ground staff near the taxi track, close to the runway area, CISF personnel came in a vehicle and caught him. "They handed over the boy to us at 7.30 am. We took him to the Institute of Mental Health in Ayanavaram where doctors confirmed that he had consumed drugs," the airport police said. The boy was later taken to the government juvenile jome at Kellys.
