Drunk Mallorca vacationer ensures police operation on the plane

A significant incident occurred on Monday on board an aircraft that was to start from Nuremberg to Palma de Mallorca. A 35-year-old man, heavily alcoholic, was excluded from the flight by the crew of the flight after repeating himself and vehemently opposed the instructions of the on-board staff. The pilot was forced to call the police, which finally led the man out of the plane. Schwäbische.de reports that when the drunk passenger was resisting and a police officer pushed against the on-board wall; Fortunately, she was unharmed.

The police brought the aggressive man to the office, where he was carried out by a blood sample. He was then taken to an outgrower cell. A procedure for resistance to enforcement officers was initiated against him. The incident raises questions about the legal consequences that could arise from his behavior. Section 113 of the Criminal Code, the resistance to enforcement officers is particularly relevant, whereby violent behavior or threats is a prerequisite.

legal aspects in the focus

In addition to the resistance, the behavior of the man could also fall under the paragraphs of the Criminal Code, which deal with the endangerment of aviation. According to anwalt.de it is important to check whether there was a specific risk to air traffic through its behavior. The reaction of the crew and the police could also be examined to evaluate the proportionality.

Another aspect is the drunkenness in traffic according to § 316 StGB, even if the passenger did not control the aircraft himself. However, his alcoholization could have affected the proper operation of the flight, which could be important for future legal considerations.

follow and potential punishments

  • Resistance to enforcement officers (§ 113 StGB)
  • Hanging up air traffic (§ 315 StGB)
  • Coercion or threat to the crew (§ 240 StGB)
  • drunkenness in traffic (§ 316 StGB)
  • administrative offense according to the Air Security Act

Furthermore, the behavior could also be considered a coercion or threat to the crew, which can be pursued by criminal law. It also remains to be clarified whether, for example, aggressive gestures or verbal threats underpin the accusation of coercion. In addition, the possibility is discussed that the man may not be fully responsible for his behavior due to his alcoholization.

Overall, the legal assessment of such incidents is complex and requires a thorough examination of the circumstances. The case of the 35-year-old shows the serious consequences of excessive alcohol consumption in the context of air traffic and raises important questions about security and rights both the crew and passengers.
