Immigration Commissioner Rufus Rodriguez said that Baha-Eldin Elgak Khalil Tabidi, 33, demonstrated the same violent acts when he was forced to board another Malaysian Airline flight for Kuala Lumpur last Sunday evening, but was restrained by injection with a tranquilizer.
Rodriguez said that Tabidi, who assumed the name of Babs Mohammed in the tampered Ghanian passport, arrived Saturday on board a Malaysian Airline flight from Kuala Lumpur. He was denied admission for carrying a tampered travel document. He was forced to board the same Malaysian Airline plane on its return flight to Kuala Lumpur but its pilot refused to fly the plane unless the Sudanese national disembarked, as he was creating a scene inside the plane and threatening to torch it with a cigarette lighter.
Aviation Security Group personnel under Marcelo Ele boarded the aircraft and literally dragged him out from the plane.– Rey Arquiza
