Youtuber arrested for recording video, falsely claiming he spent entire day at Bengaluru airport

A 23-year-old Youtuber was arrested for allegedly entering the Kempegowda International Airport here, recording a video and later falsely claiming that he spent an entire day there, police said on Thursday.

Vikas Gowda, a resident of Yelahanka here, entered the airport with a ticket of Chennai-bound Air India flight on April 7 at around 12 pm, they said.

According to the police, he did not board the flight “deliberately” and, instead, was roaming around the airport recording a video on his mobile phone.
