An Air France flight made an emergency landing in Belgium after a naked passenger tried to force his way into the cockpit, the Brussels prosecutor's office said today.

The captain of the Paris-Oslo flight appealed to Belgian air traffic controllers for help after the 31-year-old man stripped off his clothes and headed for the flight deck.

The man, a French national of Tunisian origin, was removed from the plane and questioned after the aircraft landed, but was released without charge late yesterday evening, a spokesman for the prosecutor's office said.
