MONTREAL — A Quebec man was charged Friday in connection with an incident on a Sunwing Airlines flight bound for Cuba that was forced to return to Montreal under a fighter jet escort.
Charalabos Nassios was arraigned by videoconference in a Montreal courtroom on charges that included assault, uttering threats and committing an act of violence against a person that is likely to endanger the safety of an aircraft.
The Crown objected to his release and the 39-year-old is scheduled to appear in court Monday for a bail hearing.
Nassios lives in Laval, just north of Montreal.
