Basharat claims that he had not let go of the bag at any time during the flight and not even in airport. In fact, he did not even use the bathroom in order to protect his bag. The only time he let go of his bag was during the scanning process. And even then it was right in front of hi eyes the entire time.
Listening to his story, the IIAP administration had no other choice but to launch an investigation immediately. After the administration looked into the matter, guess what did they find. The CCTV footage showed exactly what Basharat had been claiming for so long.

Unclear of where the theft took place, the IIAP administration suggested that the passenger should take the matter up with the authorities in Abu Dhabi. This case cam out as a shocker for Basharat, the other passengers and the airport staff. This is because this is the first time a case this unclear and unusual showed up for the airport. Who knows where the theft took place. Will this be considered as one of those unsolved mysteries? 🤔 Guess we have to wait for a mystery podcaster to cover it up.
