A charter plane carrying 276 passengers, mostly Indians, which was grounded in France over suspicions of human trafficking, landed in Mumbai early on Tuesday, PTI reported. Twenty-seven others stayed back. The Airbus A340 took off from Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), and was headed for the Central American nation Nicaragua but was grounded by French authorities. Operated by Romanian charter company Legend Airlines, it made a technical stopover at France's Chalons-Vatry airport when authorities halted it on Thursday.
