Airport security (AVSEC) operatives on Friday arrested a stowaway after he tried to gain access into the aircraft through the wheel-well. The airline, Air Peace, said the stowaway, in his twenties, thought the plane was heading overseas. The AVSEC personnel on static guard duties at the area rushed to stop his further movement to a taxiing aircraft (CS-TQU) and a struggle ensued. All efforts to stop the intruder by the unarmed AVSEC personnel failed as the intruder continued to resist arrest. The Captain of the aircraft CS-TQU, who spoke with FAAN Management team, commended the action of the AVSEC team.
