The plane suspected of human trafficking, which landed at Mumbai International Airport from France early Tuesday with 276 passengers, has prompted central agencies and the Mumbai police to investigate the trafficking claims. However, the Sahar police, responsible for such FIRs, reports no information from the immigration bureau. Central agencies, including the CBI and other intelligence units, have taken statements from approximately 50 passengers, hinting at potential case registration.


 
We’re gathering information from the immigration bureau, which usually communicates with Sahar police in such cases. So far, no information has been shared with us by immigration, and we haven't engaged with the passengers," said a senior Mumbai police officer.
