That year, a Singapore Airlines flight SQ117 returning from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore was held hostage by four hijackers from Pakistan.

The hijacker originally asked the captain to fly to Sydney, Australia, but landed in Singapore due to insufficient fuel.

The hijackers demanded the release of former Prime Minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto's husband Asif Ali Zardari and other Pakistan People's Party members from jail.

劫机者要求释放在监狱的巴基斯坦前总理贝娜姬・布托的丈夫阿西夫・阿里・扎尔达里与其他巴基斯坦人民党成员。

The Singapore Armed Forces Commando Formation stormed the plane in a 30-second sweep, killing all four hijackers with no injuries to hostages.
