The way it was reported on national radio seems to blame the captain and the company has come across without egg on face - which of course you'd expect. Whether the captain was under company pressure to get these people home, we will never know. What the IAA will come up with remains to be seen.
I find it astonishing that an experienced pilot has allowed to himself to get caught out in such a way. Thats assuming he knew he had stow aways on board?............
