Another India Today hyperbole... sister forum Pprune has a more dry take: http://www.pprune.org/rumours-news/5...r-germany.html

There are quite a few FIRs over central Europe, so crew often loose track of which frequency they are supposed to be on. In this case they dialed in the wrong frequency, not responding to Czech ATC.
