IC-814 hijacked:1999
India Today December 29, 2008
On December 24,1999, five masked terrorists seized in mid-air the controls of an Indian Airlines flight (IC-814) from Kathmandu to Delhi with 178 passengers and 11 crew members on board. Six days later, the government capitulated to the Pakistani hijackers’demand for the release of three top terrorists lodged in the Indian jails. “Every time you make major concessions, you are preparing the ground for several more in the future,” India Today quoted J&K governor G.C.Saxena in January 2000.
