Second Passenger From Northwest Terror Flight Held, Released

abdulmutallabAfter yet ANOTHER lie from the administration has been revealed (and by Fox News), a federal customs and border protection official confirms a second passenger from Northwest Flight 253 was handcuffed and searched after a police dog reacted to his baggage, during the Christmas Day crotch bomber unsuccessful attack. A passenger on the flight mentioned a week ago on Fox News, that a second person, of Indian decent was taken into custody the day of the attempted attack. This was denied by the Obama administration, until today.

Officials originally denied the incident despite repeated accounts by witnesses who said they saw a man get questioned and led away in handcuffs.

Ronald G. Smith, chief U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer in the Detroit area, told the paper the man was interviewed, searched and released after nothing was found. He was not arrested or detained, Smith said.

Nigerian man Umar Farouk Abdulmuttalb was arrested on Christmas Day after allegedly trying to blow up Flight 253 with highly powerful explosives sewn into his underwear.
