Saini Jackie arrested by GRP after fake Aishbagh bomb threat
India
A 26-year-old from Telangana, Saini Jackie, was taken into custody by the GRP after making a fake bomb threat at Lucknow's Aishbagh station on Tuesday, apparently because he couldn't get a seat on the train.
His prank set off a quick response from police and railway security teams.

Officers searched the train thoroughly but found nothing suspicious, so the journey continued as normal.
Jackie is now facing legal action.
This comes just days after another fake bomb scare delayed an IndiGo flight from Lucknow to Delhi for six hours, raising fresh worries about how these hoaxes are disrupting travel lately.
