On Thursday, a 23-year-old lady was discovered “aimlessly roaming” at Mangaluru International Airport. According to officials, she was safely turned over to the police after being apprehended by airport security.

She had traveled by road from Bengaluru to the Mangaluru airport in the morning, according to the Bajpe police. She has also identified Davanagere as her birthplace.

Four days ago, her relatives in Davangere had filed a missing person’s report.

The police have sent her to the government’s Wenlock hospital. Her relatives have been informed about her safety and they will be arriving later in the day, police said.

The woman is suspected to be battling depression. However, police said, they are yet to verify from the doctors about her condition.

This is the second incident of a woman roaming in the airport, only to be secured by the alert security personnel and handed over to the police.

A woman from Kadri in Mangaluru city had travelled to the airport on May 14 and was reunited with her family later.
