In reports coming from the AP, Reuters, and Yahoo, a Jordanian passenger traveling on an American passport aboard a Lufthansa flight between Frankfurt and Belgrade had become unruly and attempted to open one of the aircraft’s exterior doors.
According to the reports, the passenger was witnessed as crying out that he wished to take the passengers along with himself to join ‘Allah’.
After the passenger was subdued by the crew, he was restrained by members of a Serbian handball team that was aboard the flight.
The passenger was taken into custody by Serb officials after the plane arrived safely in Belgrade.
According to LH, passengers were not at risk due to the fact that the aircraft’s doors can not be open while an aircraft is in flight.
