The man who tried to open the plane door in flight to Sydney loaded

A Giordano citizen would have attempted to open the doors of a plane directed to Sydney on Saturday evening and had to be retained by the crew and other passengers, forcing the airline to ask for assistance to the police on arrival.

Shadi Taiseer Alsaaydeh, 45, should appear in Sydney’s local downing center court on Wednesday, accused of two counts to endanger the safety of an airplane and an attachment to assault on the cabin crew.

The police will support that initially tried to open the rear emergency exit door of an Airasia X flight that travels from Kuala Lumpur, pushing the airline staff to escort it to a place in the middle of the plane.

He then tried to open the emergency exit door in the center before the crew and passengers prevented him from doing it, during which he presumably attacked a member of the airline staff.

Australian Federal Police officers met the flight on his arrival in Sydney.

Each of the Alsaaydeh crimes is accused of a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.

The Australian superintendent of the federal police detective Davina Copelin said that dangerous behavior on aircraft would not be tolerated.

“The actions of this man could have had tragic consequences and passengers and the staff of the plane should not have to endure unruly, violent or dangerous behaviors on flights,” Copelin said.

In a statement, Airasia X said that his cabin crew took the necessary measures to protect everyone on board.
