Aussie threatens plane on flight to Moscow
(17.03.2005)
A young Australian passenger threatened to blow up a plane which was
on route to Moscow.
According to reports, the young man tried to get into the cockpit and
made threats to blow up the plane, which was carrying 214 passengers.
However, it seems that the man had no explosives to carry out his
threat.
The Aeroflot plane was not delayed on its flight from Tokyo to Moscow
and the man was detained on landing. It is believed that the man was
heading for Armenia (via Moscow).
There are no details of why the man decided to threaten the plane and
he will probably be subjected to a psychiatric exam.
It is of course possible that the man may have drunk a little too
much vodka, but this is only speculation.
Whilst the incident would have been worrying to the passengers and
the authorities, after the two terrorist attacks on Russian planes
last year, there seemed to be no actual danger.
Details of the real reason for this "threat" will probably be
available shortly.
