Did Belarusians "mine" Russian airliner?
The passenger airliner JAK-42 conducted an emergency landing in Volgograd airport on its regular flight "Moscow-Grozny'. It had 73 people aboard. The reason for landing was the false message about the bomb allegedly put in the liner. The "telephone miner" was detained in Minsk. According to the web-site "Malorossia", the examination showed there had been no bomb. Nevertheless, the examination lasted for more than two hours and the passengers arrived to Grozny three hours later than planned.
The bomb was informed by an anonymous person who called to Vnukovo airport. The investigators found out he called from Minsk. The law-enforcement authorities say it was unlikely that the man wanted to disrupt the flight -having listened to his voice at the record of the telephone conversation, they came to the conclusion he was extremely drunk. Nevertheless, the flight operations officers decided not to take the risk and landed the airliner in Volgograd .

The law-enforcement authorities detained the 40-year-old inhabitant of Minsk. As it turned out, the man "mined" two Russian airliners at a time. First he informed about the bomb aboard the liner "Moscow-Singapour", and 5 minutes later - about the possible explosion aboard the liner "Moscow-Grozny".
In the first case, the "telephone miner" used his mobile phone, in the second - his home phone in Minsk. Both numbers belonged to one and the same person - a 40-year-old Dzmitry M.
He was detained in his own apartment, informs "Gazeta.Ru". It's not his first crime of the kind. Previously he served criminal responsibility for three cases of "telephone mining" of Belarusian airliners and was directed for forcible treatment.
According to the detained, he made up his mind to call to Moscow after yet another conflict with his relatives. This version is now investigated.
