Australia probes Flydubai first officer's work and study
The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) reported that the Australian Federal Police have launched an investigation into the conduct and background of a co-pilot at Fly Dubai in Australia, following an incident that occurred on a flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv last week. The joint counter-terrorism team in Victoria is examining the man's background and his time in the country, reviewing details regarding his visa and security record. He obtained a student visa in 2014 and taught from 2015 to 2017 before it was canceled in 2019. The investigation is exploring whether the co-pilot, believed to be Hamam Al-Hammami, born in the UAE with an Omani father and a Syrian mother, was exposed to extremist ideas while residing in Australia. This comes after he was accused of attempting to attack the pilot in the cockpit during the flight, before being subdued and the plane was diverted to Taboqa, Saudi Arabia.
