A man in his mid-50s, himself a cancer survivor, was arrested for allegedly planting a hoax hijack threat note in Kolkata-Mumbai Air India flight's washroom. The accused was eventually headed to Africa for a job. However, he realised he didn't want to leave his ailing wife, a cancer patient, behind, and confessed to planting the note at the last moment.
