Chaos at Krabi Airport on Sunday as idiot passenger passes careless but devastating bomb remark

[Coss]

Bomb panic halts Krabi flight as passenger’s “bomb” remark triggers evacuation, security sweep, and arrest. No explosives found, but suspect faces serious charges after admitting it was a joke.

Panic swept through Krabi International Airport after a passenger’s bomb remark forced an emergency evacuation of a departing flight, triggering a full-scale security response, hours-long inspections, and swift police action. The incident, unfolding moments before takeoff to Suvarnabhumi Airport, saw passengers removed, baggage scrutinised, and explosive disposal teams deployed before authorities detained a 45-year-old man who later admitted the claim was a joke. The case has since escalated into criminal prosecution under Thailand’s strict aviation laws. This is the latest such incident at a Thai airport. Another casual but reckless remark by an idiot passenger was able to halt operations and trigger a costly security lockdown.....    LINK

Reading the article I was waiting for the words " German" and "drunk" but they seem to be talking about a Thai national for a change. Although unless they offer photos of policemen pointing with their finger at something they finally did not find I believe the whole story lacks credibility, what do you think?
