This incident has been shown in the Netflix series IC 814. The passengers who survived the plane had told many heart-wrenching incidents related to the hijack in a documentary interview. The captain of the plane had told what were Rupin Katyal’s last words.
Rupin was separated from his wife
In 1999, Pakistani terrorists hijacked an Indian plane. They wanted to pressurize the government to release their 3 comrades who were imprisoned in India. There were 5 terrorists in the flight. On the first day, they put 10 men in the business class. Those who were already there were shifted to the economy class. Rupin Katyal was also among these 10 people who were sent away after separating from his wife Rachna. He was killed there and Rachna did not know that her husband had been killed.
The released passenger gave an interview
According to Bollywood Shaadi report, in a documentary interview, captive Keshav had told what happened to Rupin Katyal. Rupin’s throat was slit in front of them so that the other passengers remain scared.
The terrorists were stealing glances from Rachana
The terrorists killed Rupin by slitting his throat and his wife Rachna was unaware of this. She cried for two days out of fear and on the third day she was lied to that her husband was fine. The captain of the plane, Devi Sharan, had told that the hijackers killed Rupin because there was a delay in refueling the plane. They were angry and wanted to create pressure. Rupin was killed very brutally, there were many wounds on his body.
These were Rupin’s last words
The captain of the plane had told what were Rupin’s last words. As long as Rupin was conscious, he kept asking for water from the terrorists. Blood was oozing from his entire body. The terrorists did not give Rupin water but put a blanket on his blood-soaked body. Rupin died on Christmas night. His last words were, ‘Papa water, Papa water’.
