Aeroflot Administration decided to refuse Mr. Gegoshidze to travel by Aeroflot for an improper “joke” about the bomb aboard. Yesterday Aeroflot flight Su 195 Moscow-Tbilisi was delayed for an hour and a half for efficient measures to check this passenger’s announcement about the bomb aboard.

Mr. Gegoshidze who came to Moscow Sheremetyevo Airport to travel to Tbilisi didn’t pass passport control and he was sent to Georgia consulate to adjust his papers. When he came again to airport registration of his flight that was to depart at 9.35 a.m. it was already over. Then Mr. Gegoshidze announced that there was a bomb aboard the plane that was ready to depart. The flight was delayed, passengers were evacuated and had to wait an hour and a half for the results of Gegoshidze’s announcement check up. In the local police station of Sheremetyevo Airport where the arrested “bomber” was delivered he explained his behavior as a “mere joke”.

As a result passengers of Su 195 flight could start their travel just at 11.00 a.m. troubled a lot. Aeroflot Administration decided to refuse Mr. Gegoshidze to travel by Aeroflot in future for an improper “joke” about the bomb aboard.
