When the hijacking occurred, the flight had taken off from Kathmandu and was on its way to New Delhi. The passengers on the airplane were held prisoner for seven days. The hijackers sought the release of three prominent militants: Maulana Masood Azhar, Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, and Mushtaq Ahmed Zargar. The discussions culminated in the release of three militants in exchange for the hostages' freedom. There was one fatality in the hijacking.
