Esrac 10/20/18 12:33:32 AM #1:	https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/oct/19/elin-ersson-swedish-student-video-grounded-deportation-flight-prosecution Sweden is to prosecute the 21-year-old student who single-handedly grounded an aircraft preparing to deport an Afghan asylum seeker. Elin Ersson broadcast her one-woman protest on Facebook in July, during which she refused to sit down on the flight from Landvetter airport in Gothenburg, thereby preventing it from taking off. The video has been watched 13m times. Several other passengers, including an entire football team, joined her protest and an asylum seeker was removed from the plane to applause from passengers. On Friday, Swedish prosecutors announced that Ersson would be prosecuted at Gothenburg district court for crimes against the aviation law after the incident on 23 July. She had not complied with the captains request and had refused to sit despite repeated requests from the crew, prosecutors said. She faces a fine and up to six months in jail. She's the girl who protested on the plane to keep a criminal asylum seeker from being deported back to his home country. Now she could get up to 6 months in jail. --- http://steamcommunity.com/id/Esrac/wishlist/ <cite>Esrac posted [p:910834376] in Swedish St...
