ANKARA: A flight taking 100 passengers from Nairobi to Istanbul was asked to change direction after there was a detection of a wi-fi network called ‘bomb on board’ that sent a wave of fear among the passengers.
Turkish Airlines revealed that the flight made an emergency landing at the Khartoum airport in Sudan and security inspections were carried out in the aircraft before the flight resumed its flight.
A total of 100 passengers were present on the aircraft and were safely seated back once the boarding was restarted. The authorities were unable to identify the passenger whose password it was as any passenger could name their wi-fi connections according to their wish.
