AN IRAQI MAN hauled off an easyJet flight in Vienna just before takeoff, after a passenger thought he might be an Islamic extremist, has been released, officials said today.
“There was nothing suspicious found and he has been allowed to continue his journey,” interior ministry spokesman Karl-Heinz Grundboeck said.
“The only thing outstanding is a detailed analysis of his mobile phone,” he said of the incident which took place yesterday.
A woman sitting next to him on the London-bound plane had alerted cabin crew after seeing what she believed to be messages related to the extremist Islamic State (IS) group on his phone.
All passengers had to disembark while the Airbus and all bags were checked. It finally took off three hours later but without the man or the woman, who were questioned.
The incident comes as Europe steps up security following Tuesday’s bombings in Brussels, in which three suicide bombers killed 28 people in a series of attacks claimed by IS.

Sorry but eating animals is wrong.
It’ll be held in the same regard as slavery in the future’s history books.
People don’t like having their lifestyles threatened and usually come up with very intelligent comments like ‘But they’re dumber than us’ or ‘They’re here for us to eat’- as if there was a big conference thousands of years ago between us and them where it was decided they would serve as food for us.
There’s more variety in a plant based diet.
Stop the cruelty.
That is without doubt the most ridiculous comment I’ve ever read anywhere
What’s ridiculous about it? Any rebuttal or are you just good at making dramatic comments?
Your Facebook account says you’re in the agri business and there’s a whole lot of advertisement links to selling cows??
The bias makes sense now.
We eat too much meay but most vegetarians are under nourished and do not get all their essential amino acids in their diet
