(a)obstructs an airport operator, his servants or agents acting in accordance with the provisions of this article,

(b)refuses or fails within a reasonable time to comply with a request made by any such persons made in accordance with paragraph (2)(a) above, or

(c)interferes with any such obstacle as is referred to in paragraph (2)(b) above,

shall be guilty of an offence under this Order.

(5) The airport operator may recover impounding expenses from the owner of an impounded aircraft.

(6) This article applies to any aircraft—

(a)which the airport operator has reason to believe is either majority owned by or effectively controlled by a person connected with Serbia or Montenegro, or

(b)which is detained by virtue of article 3 and in respect of which in the case of the Bailiwick of Guernsey the Board or in the case of the Bailiwick of Jersey the Attorney General determines that the said aircraft has been used in violation of the United Nations resolutions.
