Belgian Police: All Iranian protesters removed from Lufthansa jet
BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) - Police said Friday they had removed all unarmed Iranian pro-monarchists without resistance from a Lufthansa plane ending a 15-hour protest action by the group against the Iranian government.
Police spokeswoman Els Cleemput said some 90 officers were used to remove the 56 protesters from the aircraft which was moved away from the terminal at Brussels airport after negotiations failed to end the protest action at 0230 GMT.
"The plane is now empty,'' Cleemput said. - AP
