A Filipino migrant worker was arrested after allegedly threatening in jest to blow up an airliner while he was on a flight to Manila from Saudi Arabia.
On June 18, Alvin Malimban was arrested at Metro Manila’s Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 2 after the plane landed, The Philippine Star reported.
According to Marissa Galvez, chief flight steward, she had refused to serve Malimban a third glass of wine because of his unruly behavior toward the airline staff. He then tried to steal a bottle of wine but was caught by a staff member.
Instead of apologizing, Malimban threatened to blow up the plane with a bomb, which caused panic among the passengers.
When the plane landed in Manila, airport police arrested Malimban. He faces several charges, including violating Presidential Decree 1727, also known as the Anti-Bomb Joke Law.

Mind you.. .. Whatever the reasons in connection of poverty if someone entered in ILLEGAL BUSINESS the involved already VIOLATED THE LAW of the host country and NO EXCUSES ALLOWED IN COURT. PERIOD!
Correct, but the bottom line the DH entered in agreement she understood it was illegal. It was her fault.

Excuse me? Are you telling to all OFW on this planet that it is OK to work extra job "ILLEGALY" just be careful not to be caught?
Naintindihan mo ba yung sinabi mo kung anong pwedeng ikaso sa illegal job such as PART TIME JOB… ….. Ok lang yun sa opinion mo dahil kailangan para sa pamilya?
Eh, paano ngayon si kabayan DH after 15 years eh nahuli, dahil she IGNORED yung warning sa kaniya nung friend niya nuon na BAWAL ang ILLEGAL PART TIME JOB? So, parang sinabi mo din, " Ganun talaga eh nahuli. … .? "
My point is very simple: SHE VIOLATED THE LAW!
Fernandez Jhenne
Exactly! But she still violated the law because she was exploited by her own employer and worse she agreed with it VERBALLY.
Merisi ka
airline mistake or the passenger? request lang NO wine inside plane…particularly from ME.
Fake news, Why? Read the statement carefully and analyze. Threatening after being denied third glass of wine? Saudi Airlines don’t serve wines or alcoholic drinks on their flights.
ignorance of the law excuses no one!
TANGA!
Baka naka drugs yan galing dito hahaha
HOY GAGO….YAN ANG NAPALA MO SA YABANG MO….
