Panic on EasyJet Flight as Passenger Makes Bomb Threat, Shouts Political Slogans

 A disruptive passenger aboard an EasyJet flight from London to Glasgow on Sunday caused widespread panic after allegedly claiming to have a bomb and shouting politically charged slogans, including “Death to America” and “Death to Trump.” The incident unfolded as U.S. President Donald Trump was visiting Scotland ahead of a scheduled round of golf at his Turnberry resort.

Video footage published by the Daily Mail, BBC, and Scottish Sun captured the moment the 41-year-old suspect was restrained by fellow passengers while shouting religious and political phrases, including “Allahu Akbar.” Eyewitnesses reported the man emerged from the aircraft’s restroom and began acting aggressively, particularly toward the cabin crew—all of whom were described as petite women.

“When he pushed one of the crew members, everything escalated,” one passenger recalled. “A man managed to restrain him from behind, and then several others intervened to hold him down. He continued struggling on the floor, but at that point, he seemed to realize the seriousness of his actions.”

Upon landing at Glasgow Airport, the flight was met by armed police officers. Authorities confirmed that the suspect was arrested and remains in custody. Police Scotland stated that no explosives were found and that the incident is currently being treated as isolated, with no additional suspects involved.

Sources have not yet disclosed the individual’s name, nationality, or refugee status, although a witness claimed the suspect carried refugee identification documents. Counter-terrorism officers are reviewing video evidence circulating on social media as part of an ongoing investigation.

The mid-air scare comes amid growing debate in the United Kingdom over migration-related security concerns. Recent data from the Home Office revealed 50,500 knife-related offenses in England and Wales for the year ending March 2024. Public protests, such as the recent ‘Great British National Protest’ in Dover, have amplified calls for stricter border controls and increased transparency surrounding offenses involving asylum seekers.

Government figures indicate that over the past six years, individuals from Iran, Afghanistan, Iraq, Albania, Syria, and Eritrea have comprised approximately 70% of those arriving in the UK via small boat crossings across the English Channel.

Authorities have not confirmed whether Sunday’s incident will result in terrorism-related charges, but officials have emphasized that passenger safety remains a top priority.
