A 13-year-old Afghan boy was discovered at Delhi Airport on Sunday after hiding in the landing gear of a Kam Air flight. The aircraft, which departed from Kabul to Delhi, landed around 11:10 AM on September 22. The boy, who is from Kunduz, managed to board the Kabul–Delhi flight (RQ-4401) without a ticket by concealing himself in the landing gear compartment.

Upon landing, airline staff found the boy near the plane. An investigation revealed that he had traveled the entire journey inside the landing gear area. Kam Air’s security and engineering teams also recovered a small red audio speaker from the compartment.

The boy was taken into custody for questioning by airport security officials. Following the necessary procedures, he was later sent back to Kabul on another Kam Air flight (RQ-4402) the same day.
