A man pointed out a bomb in his luggage at Halle/Leipzig Airport. According to the federal police, they then checked the 58-year-old's suitcase - without any results. The whole thing was probably just a joke.
As a result, he and his five companions were banned from a flight to Egypt on Friday. The luggage was unloaded from the plane. The amount of damage caused to the airport and the airline is still unclear. It could therefore be expensive for the traveler. In addition, an investigation has been launched into disturbing the public peace by threatening to commit a crime and pretending to commit a crime, as well as misdemeanor proceedings for public nuisance.
