Flight diverted to BIA to treat injured child



An Indonesian Garuda passenger airline flight en route from Jakarta in Indonesia to Jeddah in Saudi Arabia was diverted to the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) this evening after a three-year-old child was injured while he was playing inside the plane, airport officials said.

The child was admitted to a private hospital in Negombo soon after the plane landed.

“The Boeing-777 flight with 350 passengers and 14 crew members on board was scheduled to leave soon after treating the injured child,” the official said. (T.K.G. Kapila and Deepa Adikari)
