« Je ne m’assieds pas » : elle bloque le décollage pour empêcher l’expulsion d’un migrant

Pour éviter qu’un demandeur d’asile soit renvoyé par avion en Afghanistan, Elin Erson, une étudiante suédoise de 22 ans, a acheté un billet sur le même vol, lundi 23 juillet, au départ de Göteborg en Suède. Une fois à bord, elle a refusé de s’asseoir, empêchant l’avion de décoller. « Je ne vais pas m’asseoir avant que cette personne soit descendue de cet avion », a-t-elle prévenu.
Pendant de longues minutes, elle a diffusé son action en direct sur Facebook. « Il se fera certainement tuer s’il reste dans cet avion », a-t-elle répété aux passagers et au personnel de bord agacés. Peu à peu, elle a reçu le soutien de voyageurs, qui se sont levés à leur tour. L’Afghan de 52 ans a finalement été débarqué de l’avion, et son expulsion provisoirement reportée.

Petite question à laquelle je n’ai jamais vraiment reçu de réponse : elle risque quoi ? C’est quoi les sanctions ? Elles diffèrent de pays en pays ? De compagnie aérienne à compagnie aérienne ? Qui a une réponse ?
En france, faire cette action est passible de « entrave à la circulation d’aéronefs » et/ou « obstruction à une mesure de reconduite à la frontière »

Swedish student who stopped deportation flight of Afghan asylum seeker to be prosecuted
Authorities in Sweden are set to prosecute a 21-year-old student who refused to sit down on a passenger plane in protest against the deportation of an Afghan asylum seeker who was also on board.
Elin Ersson single-handedly managed to stop the deportation on the 23 July flight from Gothenburg to Istanbul, due to take the 52-year-old man out of the country.
Footage of her defiant stand in defence of the Afghan man has notched up 13 million views online and earned her international praise.
But the Swedish prosecutor’s office announced on Friday that the activist will be charged with “violations of aviation law,” according to Swedish media.
Ms Ersson is accused of repeatedly refusing to obey orders from the pilot and aircraft crew.
Police have previously said passengers who do not obey a pilot’s commands while onboard a plane can face up to six months in jail and a fine.
She will be tried at Gothenburg district court, but no court date has yet been set.
Ms Ersson’s live-streamed video of the July incident showed her demanding the pilot exercise his right to refuse to take off while a deportee is on board.
Despite shouts of “sit down, we want to go” from those around her, some passengers began to voice their support of her protest.
“I don’t want a man’s life to be taken away just so you don’t miss a flight,” Ersson said.
Passengers finally erupted in applause as the Afghan man, three security personnel and Ms Ersson were disembarked from the plane. She was later interviewed by police.
In Facebook posts written after her protest, Ms Ersson claimed “no laws were broken”.
Sweden has maintained a strict policy on the removal of asylum seekers.
In 2017, more than 9,000 rejected asylum seekers were ordered to leave the country by the Swedish Migration Agency.

Swedish student who attempted to prevent deportation of a migrant by refusing to sit in plane goes on trial
A Swedish student who attempted to prevented the deportation of an Afghan asylum-seeker by purchasing a plane ticket and refusing to sit down on the aircraft is scheduled to go on trial on Monday.
The woman, identified as 21-year-old Elin Ersson, has been accused of breaking aviation law after she failed to follow Turkish Airways crew’s orders at Landvetter Airport in Gothenburg in July 2018 before take-off, and livestreamed her protest on Facebook.
Ersson, a student at Gothenburg University, reportedly bought a ticket for the flight from Gothenburg to Turkey after she got to know that an Afghan asylum-seeker was set to be deported on the plane.
The 21-year-old began her protest the moment she entered the plane and live-streamed the entire incident on her Facebook page in English. Reports state that the video received over half a million hits.
The footage of the incident showed a visibly emotional Errson struggling to maintain her composure as multiple hostile passengers slammed her actions and told her that she was affecting the rest of the passengers on the aircraft. However, there were many on the flight who applauded her efforts.
Ersson in the clip said: “I don’t want a man’s life to be taken away just because you don’t want to miss your flight. I am not going to sit down until the person is off the plane.”
The video showed the 21-year-old repeatedly being challenged by a steward, who asked her to stop filming. The student, however, continued with the live-streaming, saying: “I am doing what I can to save a person’s life. As long as a person is standing up the pilot cannot take off. All I want to do is stop the deportation, and then I will comply with the rules here. This is all perfectly legal, and I have not committed a crime.”
Prosecutors, however, disagreed with her stance and indicted her for breaking aviation laws last year in October. The trial is set to be held at Gothenburg District Court, and if convicted, Ersson can face a prison sentence up to six months along with additional fines, according to the Daily Mail.
Reports state that Errson had initially planned on stopping the deportation of a 21-year-old Afghan man whose asylum application had been rejected, however, when she reached the airport she was told that he had been already sent out of the country.
She then heard that another Afghan migrant, 52-year-old Bismallah S, was also set to be deported in an upcoming flight and immediately bought a ticket for it.
Bismallah, reportedly a convicted criminal, was deported to Afghanistan a few weeks later.
Ersson later said that she was unaware that the 52-year-old was a convicted criminal, but said she still felt her protest was justified, as going to Afghanistan amounted to a ’death sentence’.
Swedish authorities however said that his past crime record was not the reason why his asylum request had been rejected.
Reports state that Errson’s disruption caused a severe delay in take-off and she and the Afghan were eventually removed from the flight.

James von Reis, the prosecutor on the case, has argued for jail time, asking the judge at Gothenburg District Court to put Ersson in for 14 days if she is found guilty. The written ruling is due on February 18.

Elin Ersson : Student fined for Afghan deportation protest
A Swedish activist has been fined 3,000 krona ($324; £251) for trying to stop the deportation of an Afghan migrant.
University student Elin Ersson booked what she thought was the same flight as the Afghan, refusing to sit down unless he was taken off the plane.
The migrant in question was not on the flight after all, but another Afghan was onboard for deportation after serving a prison sentence.
Since the protest in July 2018, both Afghans have been expelled from Sweden.
Ersson, 21, broadcasted her protest on Facebook from the Turkish Airlines plane, which was bound for Istanbul, Turkey, from Gothenburg, Sweden.
