According to the information received, the Ukrainian national passenger, who was on the Turkish Airlines flight TK54 with 345 passengers and was reported to be intoxicated, broke out for an unknown reason during the trip.
After the passenger attacked the cabin crew who warned him, the captain pilot of the plane declared that he was an “illegal passenger” and requested an emergency landing from India’s Chennai Airport Tower.
The passenger, who caused an outburst on the plane that landed at the airport without any problems, was taken off the plane in the company of the Indian police.
After a delay of approximately 2 hours, the THY plane departed for Singapore to complete its flight.
