A wing and a prayer

Delhi’s canoodling commandos suffer coitus interruptus: Oddly enough, several religious shrines sit within high-security zones at Indian airports. Claiming they were visiting a Sufi shrine, two security personnel rode a scooter into the path of a flight taking off from Delhi in the early morning (via the Acorn):

Thursday’s security breach at the Delhi airport, involving two security personnel who drove a scooter onto a runway as a Royal Jordanian Airlines aircraft with over 200 passengers on board was preparing to taxi along it, has raised eyebrows in intelligence agencies.

The Times of India has more:

Bhat later told the police that he and Kusumlata were going to the Pir Baba shrine located near the cargo building on the other side of the runway… “This is a clear case of negligence as the two did not even bother to check whether or not any flight was scheduled for departure…”

Since the shrine is only open in the afternoon, and only with a special permit, and the female constable was not assigned to the airport, I’m guessing that security was literally screwing around. As the queen of tawdry double entendres said:

In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
I’m going to take you there

Sexual repression, religious oddities, slipshod security and Bajajs: only in India.

    I resisted the temptation to suggest the obvious, Manish, but you did it! This looks like one attempted quicky that went quite wrong 🙂
