The bomb threat against easyJet #U28303 was made by a teenager on Snapchat
The bomb hoax that led to Spain scrambling two fighter jets to intercept an EasyJet flight earlier this week was reportedly posted by a teenager on Snapchat, multiple outlets have reported.
The 18-year-old, named as Aditya Verma, wrote: “I’m going to blow this plane up, I’m a Taliban,” on the social media app, per The Times of London.
The teen is said to have claimed behind closed doors that the message was a joke only intended to be seen by the friends he was traveling with, the Mail Online reported.
Verma is now reportedly barred from leaving Spain and could be handed a bill of up to $120,000 to cover the cost of the scrambled jets if found guilty of a public order offence, per The Times.
