IncidentTen minutes after takeoff from Woodbourne Airport in Blenheim, at about 7:40 a.m.,[2] Asha Ali Abdille attacked both of the pilots and demanded the plane be flown to Australia. One pilot was cut in the arm, the other in the leg. Abdille also tried to wrestle the controls from the pilot. There were six other passengers (four New Zealanders, one Australian and one Indian) on board. One female passenger was also injured. The copilot managed to restrain Abdille eventually. Abdille also claimed to have two bombs on board, but no explosives were found.[2] The plane landed safely at Christchurch International Airport at 8:06 a.m.[3] HijackerAsha Ali Abdille, a 33-year-old living in Blenheim, New Zealand, originally a refugee from Somalia, was arrested after the plane landed.[4] There were fears among the New Zealand Somali community that they would be branded terrorists. The government quickly stated "the government will not tolerate any racial or religious intolerance".[4] Abdille moved to New Zealand in 1994.[5] TVNZ did an interview with her in 1996, during which she said she was not coping with New Zealand society, and would like to go back to Somalia.[6] On 1 March 2005, the then-Immigration Minister Paul Swain was questioned in Parliament regarding unrelated incidents whether he was confident that Abdille "is not a threat to the New Zealand community". The minister answered in the affirmative.[7] TrialAbdille was charged with one count of attempted hijacking, one count of wounding one of the pilots with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and two counts of injuring with intent. She was remanded for a psychiatric report.[8] On 22 February 2008, Abdille was charged in the Christchurch District Court with a further 11 charges, including threatening to kill, possessing an offensive weapon, and taking a dangerous weapon onto an aircraft. At her trial in 2010 where she was represented by prominent human rights and criminal Barrister Antony Shaw, Abdille pleaded guilty to the charge of attempting to hijack an aircraft, and was sentenced to 9 years in jail.[9][10][11] ImpactChristchurch International Airport was evacuated after the incident. Among those caught up were Transport Minister Annette King, Transport Safety Minister Harry Duynhoven and the England Cricket Team.[12] This incident prompted a review of aviation security in New Zealand. Released on 23 April 2009, it found domestic flights of fewer than 90 seats with unscreened passengers and carry-on baggage were a high-risk situation.[13]References1. ^{{cite news|title=Second pilot released from hospital after hijack attempt |url=http://www.radionz.co.nz/news/latest/200802101238/second_pilot_released_from_hospital_after_hijack_attempt |publisher=Radio New Zealand |date=10 February 2008 |accessdate=10 February 2008 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120207170135/http://www.radionz.co.nz/news/latest/200802101238/second_pilot_released_from_hospital_after_hijack_attempt |archivedate=7 February 2012 }} 2. ^{{cite news|title= NZ hijacker 'known to police'|url= http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2008/02/08/2158366.htm|publisher= ABC News|date= 8 February 2008|accessdate=9 February 2008}} 3. ^1 {{cite news|title= Captain thankful of co-pilot's skills during mid-air drama|url = http://www.stuff.co.nz/4395081a11.html|publisher= Fairfax New Zealand|date= 9 February 2008|accessdate=10 February 2008}} 4. ^1 {{cite news|title= Minister reassures Somali community|url= http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/PA0802/S00099.htm|publisher= Scoop|date= 8 February 2008|accessdate=9 February 2008}} 5. ^{{cite news|title= Update: African woman held in NZ hijack|url= http://www.bangkokpost.com/breaking_news/breakingnews.php?id=125806|work= Bangkok Post|accessdate=9 February 2008}} 6. ^{{cite news|title= Close Up on 8 February|url= http://tvnz.co.nz/view/tvone_minisite_story_skin/1575314%3fformat=html|publisher= Television New Zealand|date= 8 February 2008|accessdate=9 February 2008}} 7. ^Hansard 1 March 2005 8. ^{{cite news |first=John |last=Hartevelt |title=Hijack accused to get psychiatric evaluation |url=http://stuff.co.nz/4394966a10.html |publisher=Fairfax New Zealand |date=9 February 2008 |accessdate=9 February 2008 |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/5VTTJ5FWi?url=http://stuff.co.nz/4394966a10.html |archivedate=9 February 2008 |deadurl=yes |df=dmy }} 9. ^{{Citation | url = http://home.nzcity.co.nz/news/article.aspx?id=113484&fm=newsmain,nrhl | title =Abdille trial begins today | accessdate = 28 June 2010 | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20110928013033/http://home.nzcity.co.nz/news/article.aspx?id=113484&fm=newsmain,nrhl | archivedate = 28 September 2011}} 10. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/crime/3917213/Blenheim-woman-admits-hijacking |title=Blenheim woman admits hijacking |author=Martin van Beynen |authorlink=Martin van Beynen |date=14 July 2010 |work=The Press |accessdate=29 September 2011}} 11. ^{{cite web |url=http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/plane-hijacker-jailed-nine-years-3743133 |title=Plane hijacker jailed for nine years |date=27 August 2010 |work=Television New Zealand |accessdate=29 September 2011}} 12. ^{{cite news|title= Pilots stabbed in New Zealand plane hijack attempt|url= http://www.channel4.com/news/articles/world/pilots+stabbed+in+new+zealand+plane+hijack+attempt/1514657|publisher= Channel 4|date= 8 February 2008|accessdate=9 February 2008}} 13. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10568231|title=Domestic flight prices may rise as security beefed up |date=23 April 2009|work=The New Zealand Herald|accessdate=23 April 2009}} External links
