Man gets in trouble on flight

A video by @kundairmurapa, showed an altercation where one man subdued another. Bystanders started recording when a passenger forced the other into a seat and tied their hands together with a cable tie. The gent who was getting manhandled started yelling for police, who arrived on the scene, and escorted him out. The man who restrained him followed them off the flight.

@kundaimurapa explained that the man who was restrained allegedly threatened passengers and yelled that he wanted to be in Durban while on a Cape Town flight. Men with security experience stepped in, and that's when the altercation began. According to IOL, the man who was subdued was banned from flying with FlySAfair after the incident forced the pilot to divert to Bloemfontein, where police arrived.
