Czech Airlines / CSA Charter emergency landing

Hello all,
Just info for everyone.
A chartered Czech Airlines (CSA) Boeing 737 from Istanbul to PRG, had low (or no?) cabin pressure on take off, this Sunday, video clip from Czech news on www.iprima.cz , Prima TV. News Archive Oct. 5, (I believe in Czech only.

Passengers with headaches, nose bleeds, bleeding from the ears, dumped fuel, waited an hour to land, harsh landing ( my mother thought she was going to die, or atleast leave her front teeth in Istanbul). Long delays, chaos, now back in PRG, flying tomorrow to JFK. Thank God no major injuries.

Turkish airpot personnel, did mention that a similar incident did happen before with the same plane? Any confirmation?
