Eleven unaccompanied minors were among 303 Indian passengers grounded in France, sparking an ongoing investigation into suspected human trafficking, as revealed by a source close to the Paris prosecutor's office. Emergency services in Marne arranged makeshift beds for the stranded passengers, providing essential amenities at Vatry airport. Regular visits from Indian consulate officials were reported. The flight, operated by Romanian charter company Legend Airlines, en route to Nicaragua via Dubai, landed at Vatry on Dec 21 for a technical stopover, where French police intervened. The prefect's office initiated a judicial investigation, focusing on conditions and purpose, handled by a specialized unit in organized crime.
