A man bought a fake pilot ID card to enjoy the privileges of a pilot. Is he trying to be like the guy from Catch me if you can?
A man who wanted to get free upgrades and impress women pretended to be a pilot. He was eventually caught on an Air Asia flight from Delhi To Kolkata. Rajan Mahbubani has flown at least fifteen times with “benefits” while dressing as a pilot.
After he was arrested he claims that the fake Lufthansa ID card was made in Bangkok.
He was caught when an Air Asia staff became suspicious about his ID card and contacted Lufthansa. He has now been arrested and charged and was also found to have a fake military uniform.
The media reported that he did this to post Youtube videos.
