| August 27, 2008 Hijackers of Darfur flight surrender
|
TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) - An airline official says the two hijackers
of a jetliner that took off from Sudan's Darfur region and was
diverted to southern Libya have surrendered to authorities after a
22-hour standoff.
Sun Air Executive Director Murtada Hassan says officials at the
airport in Kufra, Libya, informed him of the surrender. He says
there were only two hijackers but others may have slipped out with
passengers released earlier. The number of hijackers and their
identities has been unclear.
Hijackers commandeered the Boeing 737 jetliner, which was
carrying 95 passengers and crew, soon after it took off Tuesday
from the southern Darfur town of Nyala.
