Arresting remarks

[DX Wombat]

11/11/01 Two high-ranking BHP Proprietary Ltd executives were removed by West Australian Police from a QF flight from Sydney which arrived in Perth mid-evening. One of these passengers is alleged to have made a remark to the effect that "We'll be taking over this flight in 20 minutes" Police boarded the flight on its arrival and removed the two passengers concerned for further questioning. Surely people in their position should know better than to make the alleged comments.
