There was a major security breach at Ireland’s busiest airport earlier this week, resulting in a man being charged with trespassing after he "barged" his way past airline staff.
The man, named as 48-year-old Abdul Ahmead, was handed two sets of fines totalling €700 after he attempted to board an Aer Lingus flight headed to Birmingham without any passport.
He had reportedly managed to gain access to the area past security at Terminal 2, as well as past airline staff at the gate, to get onto the flight - despite not having shown a boarding pass at any point, according to a report by the Independent.
