Zakia Bibi, travelling to Manchester, became angry when she was told she could not take the cigarette cartons out of the country.

She pounced on a security staff and then attacked two others, the Dawn quoted airport sources as saying.

The woman was arrested, but not before her `karate skills’ caused panic.

CCTV footage showed her slapping a female security staff.

She claimed that staff demanded money to clear her baggage, an allegation the staff denied.
