The fighter is now circling the airport so I'm led to believe.

It left a while ago.

They were tracking a UFO that was on a collision course with the passenger plane

Just been on airliners.net and found this:-

"Looks like and Etihad A340 diverted from Heathrow into Stansted according to reports"

Escorted by 2 Typhoons apparently

Did the aircraft taxi to a normal stand or has it been taken over to the other side?

He's in ATC, so might not know where it has been taxi'd to.

I don't know what happened with it after it landed but normal procedure is to take the aircraft to a secure stand until certain facts are confirmed.

It was diverted after a distubance caused by a passenger on board.

Just be reported on 5Live. An "indecent" has occurred but it is under control.

The airline says it was diverted so as to offload a "disruptive guest on board".
