A man said he was left "distressed" after claims a drunk passenger told him he 'looked like a terrorist' on a Ryanair flight from Morocco to Manchester. Umar, who is a key worker, says he was disappointed after claims staff onboard the flight for Manchester Airport failed to call the police over the vile attack.
The 30-year-old from Rochdale said he had been minding his own business when an "intoxicated" passenger started shouting abuse at him and his cousin, before pointing towards them and saying 'you look like terrorists'. Umar said staff intervened initially, and told the passenger to go back to his seat. But when he asked if they would be escalating the matter, he says he was told police wouldn't be contacted.
Speaking to the M.E.N, Umar said: "The comment was distressing and heartbreaking. I was just minding my own business and he came over to me. We were flying back from Morocco and the passenger seemed like they had had a lot to drink.
