Surinder Partap Singh, whose tweet sparked off a bomb scare on a Mumbai-Dubai Jet Airways flight on Thursday, was on Friday traced to a village near Jaipur. Singh, 26, admitted to tweeting about a bomb on the plane for fun. He said he was inspired by a similar scare on Wednesday, in which an Istanbul-bound Turkish Airlines flight had to land in Delhi after a message was found scribbled with lipstick on a toilet mirror.After Singh, claiming to be from Ludhiana, tweeted that a bomb was in the Jet Airways plane, the flight had to be diverted midair to Muscat.It was scanned for explosives, delaying it by hours and inconveniencing its 54 passengers badly, before being allowed to fly on.After a complaint by Jet Airways' security staff, the Ludhiana police started looking for Singh.Meanwhile Singh himself contacted the police, saying he was feeling guilty. Singh, originally from Banwaspur village in Hathras district of Uttar Pradesh, had briefly lived in the Giaspura area of Ludhiana before shifting base to Jaipur in January. He works as an executive in a construction company at Dehmi Kalan, some 40 km from Jaipur on the Jaipur-Kishangarh Expressway.“Prima facie it appears that Singh did this for some cheap thrills,“ Jaipur Police Commissioner Janga Srinivas Rao told Mirror. He does not appear to be unstable in any manner and wanted to see what happens in the wake of the Turkish Airlines terror scare in Delhi on Wednesday.“A team of the Sahar police will visit Jaipur on Saturday. “A case has been registered by the Mumbai police and we will be transferring Singh's custody to them,“ Rao said. Jet Airways officials said that a complaint had been registered by the airline security team and that it was for the police to probe further.In the tweet, Singh wrote: “Bomb spotted in # Jet Airways 9W-536 from Mumbai to Dubai. At 12:25 from CSIA # Operation Badla.“The flight, which had departed from Mumbai for Dubai at 12.46 pm with 54 passengers and seven crew members, was diverted to Muscat where Omani security agencies searched it for explosives after it landed there at around 2.50 pm on Thursday.Singh had later deleted the account that had eight followers and five tweets. And in one of those five tweets, he had claimed that he is also responsible for the Vyapam scam in Madhya Pradesh that is now being investigated by the CBI on the direction of the Supreme Court.
