Three Pakistani youths who had behaved in an unruly manner on a SriLankan Airlines flight, have been released after a severe warning by the Colombo Chief Magistrate’s Court.
The incident had occurred when the accused, three friends who had arrived in Sri Lanka on a tour, were leaving for Bangkok, Thailand via a SriLankan Airlines flight.
However, an argument over the flight seat had escalated into an argument affecting flight operations.
The accused had no previous criminal records, had extended an apology over the incident, and had also pleaded guilty.
Taking into consideration these facts, they were released after a severe warning from Colombo Chief Magistrate Thanuja Lakmali. (Newswire)
