Hubballi, February 7: A phone call from a dejected lover to the local airport has become a headache for the airport officials and staffs and even the police complaint seeking action against the person has yielded no results!
Hailin from Goa, but settled in Dubai, Roy Dias, has been calling the airport officials for the last one and half years. He has been calling the Air Traffic Control which controls the air traffic. Normally, the ATC will not get any other calls other than air traffic related calls. But Roy Dias has been calling the same ATC during the movement of flights, airport sources said.
“Normally, ATC room will get information about the movement of every flight. So, we cannot dislodge the telephone receiver. If it is placed in order, we have to face his torture. Every time, he asks us to give phone to his lover. He has been calling right from the time of previous airport director Shivananda Benala. He has been calling for almost40-50 times a day. If we keep quiet, he will threaten us to blast the airport. We don’t know as to why the police are silent even if he threatened to blast the airport”, the officials expressed their helplessness.
Dejected lover
According to airport staff, Roy Dias hailed from Goa. Roy and a woman working in Goa airport were in love with each other. After she was transferred to Hubballi airport, she has not taken the love issue seriously. But Roy used to call her every day and caused to break her marriage with other man. Depressed over his behavior, she changed her mobile number. Later, Roy went to Dubai for work and now, he has been trying to contact her, said airport officials.
Hubballi-Dharwad police commissioner MN Nagaraj said that the police have been trying to trace the person who has been threatening and calling the airport.

Meerut: The murder of Merchant Navy officer Saurabh Rajput in Meerut has sparked a political debate after Samajwadi Party (SP) leader Deepak Ranjan presented a blue drum to Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak at an event in Lucknow on Tuesday. The gesture, captured in viral images, was seen as a jibe at the state’s law and order situation.
Rajput’s wife, Muskan Rastogi, confessed to killing him with the help of her lover, Sahil Shukla. The duo dismembered Rajput’s body and concealed it in a blue drum filled with cement. The crime has turned the blue drum into a chilling symbol, widely referenced in memes and social media discussions.
SP leader Ranjan’s act of gifting a blue drum has ignited debate over governance and security in Uttar Pradesh. The move, made during the ‘Lantrani Hasya Utsav’ event in Lucknow, has further intensified political discourse.
The case has also affected sales of blue drums, particularly in Meerut and Aligarh, where shopkeepers report a decline due to public apprehension. Some sellers have urged people not to stigmatise the item.
Muskan Rastogi and Sahil Shukla remain in jail, facing trial for the gruesome murder.
