New Delhi, Dec 22 (IBNS) Four people were killed when a small aircraft belonging to the Border Security Force (BSF) crashed into a wall near the Delhi airport on Tuesday morning, reports said.

Ten people, including three BSF officers, were on the plane, which was  flying to Ranchi. Four bodies have so far been recovered.
