Drunken Russian detained after hijack attempt
« on: December 28, 2006, 08:25:16 PM »
A Russian aircraft was forced to make an emergency landing in Prague today after a 'drunken' passenger claiming to have a bomb tried to hijack it and divert it to Cairo.

Passengers and crew on the Aeroflot flight from Moscow to Geneva managed to overpower the man as he tried to break into the cockpit.
