The flight was delayed for 45 minutes after the pilot reportedly told guards: 'You're not going to take him, I'm not flying'
Samim Bigzad, 22, was booked on a commercial flight from Heathrow destined for his home country after failing to prove that he was facing execution at the hands of the Taliban.
But the Turkish Airlines pilot would not take off, reportedly telling guards: "You're not going to take him, I'm not flying.
"Someone's life is at risk."
Mr Bigzad came to Britain two years ago after reaching a Calais migrant camp.
