Presiding Magistrate Olanrewaju Salami struck out the five-count charge against Emmanson after the police formally withdrew the case.
The charges had alleged that Emmanson disrupted peace on board the flight, assaulted a crew member, and conducted herself in a manner likely to cause a breach of public order. She had pleaded not guilty when first arraigned.
During Wednesday’s proceedings, Police Prosecutor Oluwabunmi Adeitan informed the court that the complainant and the airline were no longer interested in pursuing the matter. She applied for the case’s withdrawal, citing instructions from police authorities.
Magistrate Salami granted the request and ordered Emmanson’s discharge.
