It seems like the whole thing was a big set up to get to Britain and claim asylum to get away from Afghanistan. Of the 150+ people on board, only 34 actually want to go back. The police have arested 22 passengers on suspicion of hijacking and they will be tried in Britain. It took them a long time to work out who was a hijacker and who a victim - but say they won't be making any more arrests. A total of 74 including those arrested have already claimed political asylum. They are all currently under guard in the Stanstead Hilton (I kid you not) while the government works out what to do with them.... The Home Sceretary has already said he would like to send all of them back, otherwise it looks like an incentive to other hijackers. The Afghani 727 will have to undergo days of stringent safety checks before it will be allowed to fly back.. A most unusual situation!
