Vadodara: An airhostess on the Delhi-Vadodara flight of IndiGo Airlines got the shock of her life when she allegedly caught a passenger staring at her and masturbating midair. When the aircraft landed at Vadodara, the passenger Rajeev Mallik was arrested by the police for performing a vulgar act in a public place and was later released on bail.
While there have been such instances in the West, this is perhaps a first in India’s civil aviation history. Mallik, a manager with a private firm in Delhi, was on an official visit to Vadodara.
The incident took place before 11.30 am on flight 6E 481 when the cabin crew was preparing for landing at Vadodara airport. Mallik, a resident of Okhla in New Delhi, had changed his seat and gone to the rear of the aircraft. Kishanwadi police station officials, who arrested Mallik, said the accused was “showing his private parts” even as an airhostess was watching him in the act.
Police officials added that the airhostess was going through the routine exercise of asking passengers to fasten their seat belts before landing when she came across Mallik masturbating. Apparently, he did not even stop on seeing the airhostess. The airhostess immediately informed the flight captain, who, in turn, informed officials at Vadodara airport. Mallik was detained by the airport security as soon as he got down the flight and was handed over to the Kishanwadi police. An offence was registered against Mallik by IndiGo’s Vadodara manager Meet Ringwani.
