On June 18, 2024, a dramatic scene unfolded at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) as India’s Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) detained Guru Sewak Singh for attempting to board an Air Canada flight using the passport of a 67-year-old man named Rashvindar Singh Sahota.

This  raised suspicion due to his peculiar appearance. Officials quickly noted inconsistencies between his youthful skin texture and the aged persona he was trying to portray, enhanced by dyed white hair and glasses.

Upon closer inspection and questioning, Singh was compelled to reveal his true identity after officials insisted on verifying his actual passport.

Following this revelation, Delhi Police took him into custody for further investigation. Now Toronto contacted Air Canada for a comment on the incident but did not receive a response by the time of publication.

Previously, a roof collapsed under heavy rainfall and winds at the main airport in India’s capital New Delhi on June 28, killing one person and causing authorities to cancel flights from one terminal, officials and media said.

A portion of the canopy at the departures area of Delhi airport’s terminal 1 collapsed at 5 a.m. (2330 GMT), a statement from the airport posted on the social media site X said.
