Today, Monday 22 January, Spain's Audiencia Nacional court will try a young British man who the Public Prosecutor's Office accuses of a crime of public disorder because in July 2022 he sent a message on his social media of a fake bomb threat on a plane he was flying on, which was travelling from London to Menorca.

In the indictment, reported by Europa Press, the Public Prosecutor's Office does not request a prison sentence for him but a fine of 22,500 euros. To this figure it adds a compensation of almost 95,000 euros for the Ministry of Defence for the expenses derived from the deployment of a fighter jet that escorted the flight until it landed.
