It is a non-bailable offence.

She has to first get herself enlarged on bail and the challenge the case in court on the basis of merits in her side.
1.Now nothing can be done except to take bail for her first.
2.The complicity of her boy friend would be believed by court.
3.if you sahre the FIR then I may help further.
For further assistance feel free to contact.
1. Your sister has to apply for bail to the magistrate when she is produced before him, which may be rejected and she may be remanded to police custody for interrogation. Entering with a weapon in an airport is a serious offence, hence her bail application may in all likelihood be disallowed by the magistrate and sessions judge. She should be prepared to move the HC for bail.
2. The priority should be to bring her out on bail.
