SINGAPORE - A Russian passenger was charged in court Monday after allegedly threatening to "blast" the Singapore-bound plane he was on if he was not served water.
Vlada Vitaly, 26, was on board a Singapore Airlines (SIA) flight from Moscow to Singapore last Tuesday when he asked a flight steward for water and then told him: "You better get back to me. If not I will blast this aircraft", according to court documents seen by AFP.
He faces one charge of committing an act of "criminal intimidation", the documents said. The offence is punishable by up to two years in jail. Full story
