A 23-year-old man was apprehended by the CISF for allegedly concealing a knife in his shoes at Indore airport on Wednesday, officials said.
They said Maitu R Poyam from Kondagaon in Chhatisgarh was intercepted during a security check. He was supposed to take a flight to Raipur in Chhattisgarh.
He has been handed over to police to ascertain why he sneaked in the shoe-length knife, the officials said.
Carrying arms, ammunition and sharp objects in the aircraft is banned under the Indian aviation rules.
