A ground observer reported the aircraft was at the holding point runway 12R, number one for departure with several other aircraft already in the queue for departure, when the crew notified ATC they were unable to taxi. About 30 minutes later the aircraft was towed from its position onto and down runway 12R and back to the apron. The ground observer did not observe the aircraft enter the runway on own power.
