On May 3, 2025, SriLankan Airlines flight UL 122 from Chennai to Colombo was thoroughly searched at Bandaranaike International Airport after Indian authorities alerted their Sri Lankan counterparts about a possible suspect onboard. The individual is believed to be connected to the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed 26 lives, mostly tourists. Following the alert from the Chennai Area Control Centre, Sri Lankan security agencies conducted an immediate inspection. No suspect was found, but the flight’s onward journey to Singapore was delayed due to the checks.
