A flight from London Luton to Scotland was diverted on Sunday after a passenger continuously yelled ‘Allahu Akbar’ and that he had a bomb. According to a report in The Jerusalem Post, the man claimed that he wanted “to send a message” to US President Donald Trump, who is on a visit to Scotland.
A video of the incident has now gone viral on several social media platforms, where the passenger could be heard saying ‘Death to trump’ and yelling ‘Allahu Akbar’. ABP LIVE, however, cannot claim the veracity of the video.

Speaking to The Sun, a male passenger on the flight said that the man had come out of the toilet shouting “Allahu Akbar” with his hands above his head and was being aggressive as well.
“He literally came out of the toilet shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ with his hands above his head. Then he said, ‘I’ve got a bomb, I’ve got a bomb’ – at this point, people were confused,” the passenger said.
“He pushed the airline staff and was being aggressive towards them. He was a big guy, about six foot, and they were these petite women,” the passenger added.
The flight then made an emergency landing at the Glasgow Airport, where cops boarded the plane, handcuffed him, and forcibly removed him, reports The Jerusalem Post.
