The crew members of a United Arab Emirates air force plane, who were detained at the Kolkata airport on Sunday night for carrying arms and explosives in the aircraft, were on Monday granted clearance to resume their flight to China. The captain and eight crew members of the UAE air force aircraft were deplaned on the tarmac of the Netaji Subash Chandra Bose international airport. They were carrying arms and explosives for allegedly violating a declaration that allowed them to land for refuelling in the city. However, a clearance has now been issued by the Intelligence Bureau for the crew to fly off to China. The legal proceedings that were scheduled against them for Monday have also been put off. According to reports, the chaos erupted as the plane made an unscheduled landing at Kolkata. However, it was later found that the officials had the required documents in their possession.
