He was caught by jetairways machinary ,when his baggage was scanned and gun was found in the scan and when asked about it he was not able to produce any document regarding the same and before scanning he did not declare about the carriage of weapon in the bag.So suspectedly he was handed over the chennai airport police for further management.

India is very strict in arms and ammunition act and he might have to face legal procedures in India.
