‘Hijacker' stays in custody as probe continues
A Swede, arrested as he attempted to board a London-bound Ryanair flight with a gun in his hand luggage, is to remain in custody while prosecutors investigate charges he planned to hijack the airliner.
A judge yesterday ordered Kerim Sadok Chatty detained on preliminary charges of planning to hijack a plane and illegal possession of a weapon. He said prosecutors must bring formal charges by September 16.
