EasyJet passenger arrested after shouting ‘Allahu Akbar' on flight
An easyJet passenger has been arrested after allegedly shouting 'Allahu Akbar' on a flight. Witnesses said the man claimed to have a bomb on the plane, which was flying from Luton to Glasgow on Sunday morning. Footage shows the man at the back of the aircraft, standing up and shouting: 'Stop the plane. 'Find the bomb on the plane. Death to America. Death to Trump.' He then allegedly shouted 'Allahu Akbar' three times, which means God is the greatest in Arabic. He was pinned down by three passengers, while air hostesses climbed on the seats to obtain the man's bags. Trump is currently on a four-day visit to Scotland. A 41-year-old man was detained at the scene and remains in custody, Police Scotland said. Officers who had been waiting on the tarmac handcuffed the man and removed him from the aircraft. A witness, who wished to remain anonymous, told the Sun he woke at around 8am to hear the man coming out of the plane's lavatory shouting that he had a bomb. 'He literally came out of the toilet shouting 'Allahu Akbar' with his hands above his head,' he said. 'Then he said 'I've got a bomb, I've got a bomb' – at this point people were confused.' The 39-year-old added: 'He pushed the airline staff and was being aggressive towards them. He was a big guy, about six foot and they were these petite women. 'When he pushed them, that's when things changed.' The witness said an emergency landing took place after an announcement by the pilot before police swarmed on to make the arrest. 'The main copper said, 'Look, don't mess about or you'll go straight down,'' he added. 'By this point the guy had calmed down. He'd admitted he didn't have a bomb. He gave up.' 'Footage being assessed by counter terrorism officers' A Police Scotland spokesman said: 'We received a report of a man causing a disturbance on a flight arriving in Glasgow around 8.20am on Sunday, 27 July, 2025. 'Officers boarded the plane on its arrival and a 41-year-old man was arrested and remains in custody. Enquiries are continuing. 'At this time we believe the incident was contained and that nobody else was involved. 'We are aware of videos circulating online and these are being assessed by counter terrorism officers.' An easyJet spokesman said: 'Flight EZY609 from Luton to Glasgow this morning was met by police on arrival in Glasgow, where they boarded the aircraft and removed a passenger due to their behaviour onboard. 'EasyJet's crew are trained to assess all situations and act quickly and appropriately to ensure that the safety of the flight and other customers is not compromised at any time. 'The safety and wellbeing of our customers and crew is always easyJet's highest priority.'

Police Scotland said the man was arrested 'for abusive behaviour and refusing to stop' and issued with a recorded police warning. A man was arrested at Prestwick Airport for allegedly carrying a placard calling Donald Trump an offensive word. The man, aged 20, was arrested on Friday next to the military airport in Ayrshire where Air Force One landed. Police Scotland said the man was arrested 'for abusive behaviour and refusing to stop' and issued with a recorded police warning. A Police Scotland spokesperson said: 'A 20-year-old man was arrested next to Prestwick Airport on Friday for abusive behaviour and refusing to stop. 'He was given a Recorded Police Warning.' Meanwhile, a 'festival of resistance' is set to be held near Donald Trump's Aberdeenshire golf course ahead of meetings with political leaders on Monday. The protest at The White Horse Inn, Balmedie, Aberdeen, is close to the Trump International Scotland golf resort and organisers said they object to it receiving £180,000 of public funding for the Nexo Championship next month.

Organiser of Stop Trump Scotland, Alena Ivanova, said: 'As Donald Trump is expected to arrive at his Aberdeenshire golf course, residents and protesters are gathering in Balmedie from 3pm to continue the festival of resistance. 'This message is to Donald Trump but also our elected leaders preparing to meet him: there is no place for Trumpism in Scotland. 'They need to stand up to him instead of kowtowing to this bully – including by handing over hundreds of thousands of pounds of taxpayer money for a golf tournament hosted at Trump International even while he attempts to bully us with tariffs. 'In the vicinity of the golf course people will be making noise and using creative props to bring the message as close to home as possible – Donald Trump is not welcome here.'
