The flight was on its way from the United Arab Emirates to Nicaragua when it stopped at Paris-Vatry Airport in France's Champagne country to refuel. Officials received an anonymous tip that passengers on the flight were being trafficked. There were 11 unaccompanied minors on the flight and the youngest passenger was a 21-month-old toddler.A plane with 303 Indian passengers detained near Paris over suspicions of human trafficking will be free to leave Monday after French authorities grounded.
