Is it illegal for an airline to transport a person who has committed a criminal act for which he/she had not been arrested and charged
If someone has not been arrested or charged then how do you know it was them what done it M'Lud. Can you know whatever transpired was in fact illegal ? Ergo you can't be accused of transporting a criminal if the person in question has not been subject to the due process of law. Seems like a perfectly reasonable defence to me...Although I'm no lawyer !

Unless of course you witnessed said criminal act then it might not be quite so straight forward.
