The plane, an Airbus A310, had taken off from Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at 18:15 SST, with 118 passengers and 11 crew on board. The plane was hijacked in mid-air while en route to Singapore Changi Airport, and landed safely at Changi Airport at 22:15, where an executive group of officials from the Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Home Affairs and Ministry of Information, Communications and the Arts, along with Singapore Airlines representatives and a negotiating team, were all standing by. The hijackers, who claimed to be members of the Pakistan Peoples Party, demanded the release of former Prime Minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto's husband, Asif Ali Zardari, as well as other PPP members from jail. Furthermore, the hijackers wanted the plane to be refuelled in order to fly to Australia. The next morning, on March 27 at 02:30, the hijackers pushed two stewards out of the aircraft, after moving the plane to outer tarmac. The injured stewards assisted in the ongoing investigations.
