A new video from the Flydubai flight incident shows passengers repeatedly insisting that co-pilot Hamam al-Hammami be handed over only to police after he was restrained following an alleged attack on Indian Captain Smit Machchhar. Passengers who helped subdue the Omani co-pilot told The New York Post that some cabin crew members allegedly asked them to untie him, raising their suspicions. The passengers refused, keeping him restrained until the aircraft landed in Saudi Arabia. The 45-second video shows al-Hammami kneeling with his hands tied behind his back while passengers can be heard saying “just police” and “only police.”
