Maybe someone from Aestres can say something.
1) What was the PA announcement concerning the smoking SLF ?

Yes, that would be good. I am puzzled by this because the airline's account gives me the impression that the culprit had been identified by cabin crew and would be met by police at Glasgow whereas the passengers' version has the captain demanding that the culprit own up failing which all passengers would be held at Glasgow pending the arrival of the police.

Depending on which one is true I think we have two different situations. In the first instance it would be a case of passengers reacting badly to the news that an identified passenger would be met by police at Glasgow. The second situation is much different and would have involved an aircrew holding passengers against their will on an aircraft. The question then would be whether they had sufficient reason to do so.
