An intoxicated foreign passenger caused a disturbance on an AJet flight traveling from London Stansted to Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen. During the flight, the individual reportedly harassed a female passenger seated nearby.
When cabin crew intervened to address the situation, the passenger resisted warnings and bit both a flight attendant and another passenger, causing injuries. The captain notified Sabiha Gökçen Air Traffic Control regarding the incident and requested police presence upon arrival.
