The man identified as Mohammad Abdullah, was caught on January 20 after he was noticed by the housekeeping staff who alerted the CISF.
He had checked into the airport on January 11 with an Etihad ticket, which was fake. Even after the airline staff reported him to CISF, for some strange reason, they let him go.
However within an hour he managed to re-enter the airport through another gate with new printout of the same ticket.
