Egypt plane hijacker due in court

A man from Egypt is expected to appear in court in Cyprus today, charged with offences that relate to yesterday's hijacking of a plane which landed on the island. 

Seif a-Din Mustafa managed to board the EgyptAir plane in Alexandria with a fake explosives belt.

It was on its way to Cairo when he allegedly forced it to divert to Larnaca in Cyprus.

Everyone on board was eventually released unharmed. It's thought the hijacking was motivated by a row between Mr Mustafa and his ex-wife who lives in Cyprus.
