Turkish tyremaker Petlas has apologised after video footage of one of its board members at the centre of a disturbance on 13 December aboard a Turkish Airlines plane surfaced online and was widely reported in local media. Airline staff reportedly handcuffed Abdülkadir Özcan and detained him upon landing, but no legal charges are known to have been pressed.
