Zheng was hauled off the aircraft and remanded at a police station here. Today, he pleaded guilty to committing criminal intimidation.

Before passing sentence, Magistrate Sharifah Muhaymin Abd Khalib sternly reminded Zheng that what he did was still an offence despite it being a joke. Sharifah ordered Zheng to begin his five-day jail sentence from Nov 30.
