At what point does living in a airport become a crime?
3 comments

If the airport were to "close to the public" for any reason he could be considered as a Trespasser.

Heathrow (for example)[0] has a problem with homeless people sleeping there, if they're warned by security staff and found again then they're considered trespassers, and trespass is illegal.

When poverty or existence becomes a crime.
It's not, and that's why the Indian authorities are letting him stay there.
