According to the police, the defendants disrupted the flight by shouting at the top of their voices, causing panic and public disturbance among passengers and crew.

 

Their actions were deemed a breach of public peace under Section 168(1)(d) of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State, 2015.
Further allegations reveal that the trio unlawfully moved from their originally assigned economy class seats to the business class section without authorization.
