Eye Scan: Time… It must have been around 1 am. Place… Terminal 3 of Indira Gandhi International Airport. Profilers of the intelligence wing of Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) were on their routine patrol outside the terminal. Suddenly their attention fell on a passenger taking out luggage from a car. Since the actions of this passenger were somewhat different from the usual, the profilers started following him.
According to a senior CISF officer, the first reason for the profilers to notice this passenger was the weight of the baggage he was carrying. In fact, when the profilers saw this passenger taking out the baggage from his car, they felt as if someone was carrying bags full of flowers and placing them in the trolley. This passenger did not have a single bag whose weight was normal. This is where the profilers became suspicious of this passenger.
