Prague Airport: A British grenade caught fire in a backpack! The court deported him for three years
“In relation to the incident at Václav Havel Prague Airport, a so-called abbreviated preparatory procedure was carried out with one natural person who is not a national of the Czech Republic,” Bimbal Cimbala said on Thursday. Police have previously stated that he is a British citizen.
“The act the suspect was supposed to commit is considered a criminal offense of illicit armament. The thing in question, which was to burn in the airport area, was part of a military grenade“The spokesman added, adding that the Brit was handed over to the court with a motion to punish him.
This was decided by the District Court for Prague 6 on Thursday morning. “It was decided by a criminal order. The man was found guilty of illegal armaments and sentenced to three years’ expulsion from the Czech Republic and forfeiture of the item in which the fire occurred. The decision is released from jurisdiction, “said Blesk’s man, spokeswoman for the District Court for Prague 6, Zuzana Barochová.
Incident
The incident took place on Tuesday, April 12, around nine o’clock in the morning. According to the police, there was a “burn-in and burns by an as yet unidentified object of a citizen of Great Britain”. The connecting corridor between terminals 1 and 2 was evacuated for safety reasons. “According to initial information, it was probably an unprofessional manipulation of fireworks,” police said on Tuesday. Alien Police spokeswoman Renata Grecmanová confirmed to Bleska that the Brit had an object in his backpack and suffered minor injuries.
The burned foreigner was treated on the spot by members of the Association of Samaritans of the Czech Republic, who perform permanent medical service at Václav Havel Airport. The Prague Rescue Service sent an inspector and a special large-capacity Fenix car to the scene, but so far it has not had to treat anyone, said rescue spokeswoman Jana Poštová. “The men were treated by fellow Samaritans. According to my information, it was not a critical injury, but rather a minor injury, “she said. Arrival at the airport was temporarily limited for passenger transport, so people had to get to the terminals on foot or use public transport.
