I believe that the book you have in mind is Wild Justice which was
also released as "The Delta Decision" by Wilbur Smith. This book was
published in the United States with the name "The Delta Decision" in
1979. "Wild Justice" was the name used for the British edition.
Below you will find a few descriptions and reviews where you may
verify that this is the correct novel.
?WILD JUSTICE starts out on a hijacked airliner and ends up in a
desperate fight to stop a master terrorist known as Caliph.?
?Wilbur Smith's drama "Wild Justice" commences with a hijacking of a
passenger jet from the Seychelles islands in the Indian Ocean. A four
person team commandeered the plane and forced it to land in South
Africa. The terrorists demands included the release of political
prisoners, 170 million dollars and a media covered denouncement of the
racist South African government.?
(. . .)
It was learned that this whole plot was orchestrated by a shadowy
terrorist leader known as Caliph.
