IndiGo sends man's corpse to wrong city

In a case of gross negligence by Indigo airlines, the body of a Karauli man was flown from Kochi airport and was taken to Chennai, whereas it was scheduled to go to Jaipur.

The incident happened with the body of one Raees Khan who had died in Kerala three days ago. Khan's elder brother and one friend was bringing his body from Kochi to Jaipur and were on the same flight. After reaching Jaipur, they did not get any information about the body. Khan's relatives demanded that the airline officials tell them about the whereabouts of the body and showed them the documents.

Airlines officials, after realising the mistake, assured the family that the body will be flown to Jaipur soon.

"We have given the info on social media. The flight is coming shortly," an airlines official told DNA.

The flight carrying Raees Khan's body arrived later in the day.
