Officials at Delhi Airport said that to curb incidents of theft, officials of the airline are also being scrutinized and interrogated by a special task force.
The DCP said a similar incident occurred in August when Goa resident Rajesh Sen travelled from Delhi to Goa through Air Vistara on August 16 and handed over his luggage for check-in at the Air Vistara counter at IGI Airport.
A police team busted a theft racket operating inside Indira Gandhi International Airport terminals, arrested eight people and seized jewellery worth over Rs 10 lakh from their possession, officials said.
