Batavia Air insists that the smoke emitted from the engine was within normal operating parameters and certainly not the basis for evacuating the aircraft, an act that was never ordered by the cabin crew or the cockpit.

In the resulting shuffle and panic, 9 passengers suffered injury which included broken legs that were treated at a local hospital.
