Pilots of various local and foreign airlines have complained that people are quite often and frequently targeting lasers on planes during landing or takeoffs at the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport. Pilots are saying there could be a major accident due to these laser beams. Who are pointing these lasers on aeroplanes? What steps can be taken by the authorities to stop the laser beam menace?

A flight heading to New York turned back to London Heathrow Airport after a "laser beam incident", Virgin Atlantic has confirmed.
