LONDON - British anti-terrorism detectives escorted a man from a plane after a

taxi driver had earlier become suspicious when he started singing along to a

track by the punk band The Clash, police said on Wednesday.

 

Detectives halted the London-bound flight at Durham Tees Valley Airport in

northern England and Harraj Mann, 24, was taken off.

 

The taxi driver had become worried on the way to the airport because Mann had

been singing along to The Clash's 1979 anthem London Calling, which features the

lyrics " Now war is declared -- and battle come down " while other lines warn of a

" meltdown expected " .

 

Mann told British newspapers the taxi had been fitted with a music system which

allowed him to plug in his MP3 player and he had been playing The Clash, Procol

Harum, Led Zeppelin and the Beatles to the driver.

 

" He didn't like Led Zeppelin or The Clash but I don't think there was any need

to tell the police, " Mann told the Daily Mirror.

 

A Durham police spokeswoman said Mann had been released after questioning -- but

had missed his flight.

 

" The report was made with the best of intentions and we wouldn't want to

discourage people from contacting us with genuine concerns, " she said.

I'll never forget the rather uncomfortable irony of that particular song

being played in the Indymedia tent at the G8 protesters eco-village, at the

very moment that the news of the London bombings got there!
