A handcuffed sex criminal spat on British families while being deported from the UK on a budget holiday flight to Turkey.
Holidaymakers travelling on a Wizz Air service from London to Istanbul last Wednesday watched in disbelief as the scenes unfolded at Gatwick Airport.
The man – understood to be a Turkish national being deported after serving a prison sentence in Britain – was hauled from a van and forced onto the aircraft by officials in high-vis jackets.
Dramatic footage captured the detainee struggling violently as he was dragged up the aeroplane stairs and into the rear of the Airbus cabin before take-off.
