Malaysian Airlines flight #MH122 to Kuala Lumpur returned to Sydney following a security incident.
A disruptive passenger on board a Malaysia Airlines flight has caused it to be turned back after he apparently started shouting at passengers asking if they were slaves to Allah.
#Sydney Airport is put under restriction since we are blocking main taxi way out of Runway 16R. Fire trucks all around. Fool that threatend staff must be blacklisted. #MH122
