The British man who took a picture with the EgyptAir hijacker snatched a phone from a camerawoman as he landed at Manchester Airport.

Ben Innes, who lives in Aberdeen, was flown home on Wednesday after being held hostage on the flight which was forced to divert to Cyprus on Thursday.

In footage filmed by ITV News, Mr Innes refuses to answer questions and then grabs the camerawoman’s phone.

When she says: “That’s my property, what are you doing?”, Mr Innes is heard to reply: “I don’t give a s*.”

After walking off with the phone, Mr Innes eventually gave it back.

The photograph of Mr Innes with alleged hijacker Seif Eddin Mustafa went viral earlier this week.

Mr Innes told The Sun newspaper it was the “best selfie ever” and he took it because he was “trying to stay cheerful in the face of adversity”.
