Two Maldivian pilots employed by flydubai have been arrested by UAE police in connection with an alleged attempt by an Omani co-pilot to hijack and crash a Dubai-Tel Aviv flight, in which Indian Captain Smit Machchhar was injured while foiling the suspected plot, according to media reports.
The duo were taken into custody on October 3, and their families have been formally informed of their detention by the Maldivian Embassy in the United Arab Emirates, Maldivian news portal Adhadhu reported.
The Maldivian authorities have declined to comment on the detention of the two pilots, it said.
No official details have so far been released by the UAE authorities regarding the allegations against the detained Maldivian nationals or the status of the investigation into their possible involvement.
The arrests came as UAE authorities widened their investigation into the September 30 incident involving flydubai co-pilot Hammam al-Hammami, an Omani national accused of attacking the flight's pilo

India's private sector is expected to invest around Rs 7.5 lakh crore and contribute 30 GW to the country's ambitious target of achieving 100 GW of nuclear power capacity by 2047, Atomic Energy Commission Chairman Ajit Kumar Mohanty said.
The country currently has about 9 GW of installed nuclear power capacity and plans to expand it substantially by 2047, he said.
"Public sector undertaking Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd (NPCIL) currently operates 24 reactors. We think private players should also enter the nuclear business and that is why new legislation was enacted," Mohanty, who is also the secretary of the Department of Atomic Energy, told PTI in an exclusive interview.
"Five years from now, I expect a couple of private sector players to run reactors. We think that about 30 GW should come from them by 2047. It costs around Rs 25 crore to generate 1 MW," he added.
Mohanty, who was in Ranchi to attend the 36th convocation of Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra, said India

Cockroach Janta Party convenor Abhijeet Dipke on Monday accused the Narendra Modi government of waging a war against citizens to protect Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar amid growing demands for his resignation.
The activist reached his native village, Santuk Pimpri, in Hingoli district of Maharashtra late last night, and visited the site where his grandmother's final rites were performed.
In a sharp post on X, Dipke wrote, "Youth are being assaulted, journalists are being assaulted, even MPs are being assaulted by Delhi Police. What makes Gyanesh Kumar so indispensable to Modi that he is willing to wage war against everyone just to protect him?"
Dipke, along with CJP leaders Ashutosh Ranka and Saurav Das, were put under preventive arrest at the Delhi airport ahead of the Jantar Mantar protest on Saturday. They were released on Sunday on condition that they would not "breach peace" for a year.
The CJP and opposition parties have been demanding the resignation of Chief ...

Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal on Wednesday said India-US relations are "very good" and will only improve irrespective of changes in political thinking in the two countries.
Goyal said that the bilateral relationship goes beyond trade and encompasses defence, technology, critical minerals and people-to-people ties.
"Of course, it is already very good. I don't see any problem as we speak also. And to my mind, the relationship with the US that India enjoys is very substantive, very consequential for the world, being two large democracies," he said at the Bloomberg New Economy event here.
He was responding to a question on whether India-US relations would improve after US president Donald Trump leaves office.
"One must bear in mind that we have, it's not only about trade, which of course they are our largest trading partner and I think will continue to be in the years to come. And by and large, I don't see any problem in any agreements also with the United States," the ..
