An Ikeja Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday, August 13, discharged Miss Comfort Emmason of charges bordering on unruly behaviour and assaulting the flight crew aboard an Ibom Air aircraft from Uyo to Lagos on Monday.



Magistrate Olanrewaju Salami struck out the five-count charge against Emmason after the police prosecution team withdrew the case.

At the resumed hearing, prosecutor Oluwabunmi Adeitan informed the court of new developments that necessitated the withdrawal.

She tendered an application to the court for the withdrawal of the case, which was admitted by the court.
