IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack

On 24th December 1999, flight IC 814 gets hijacked in Kathmandu. Mukul Mohan identifies the voice of one of the hijackers. DRS learns of a key asset.

The officials work on procuring the passenger list of IC 814. Meanwhile, the hijackers face obstacles while trying to land the plane.

Captain Sharan Dev prepares to navigate a perilous situation. Ram Chandra Yadav warns of a suspicious object on the plane.

The plane lands in Kandahar. Aspersions are cast on Captain Sharan, even as he tries to come up with a rescue plan. The negotiating team gets finalized.

The hijackers lay out their demands but face a tough negotiator in the form of Mohan. The passengers get increasingly uncomfortable.

A week into the hijack, the Crisis Management Group begins to see discord. Will the negotiators succeed — or will the talks reach a stalemate?
