New Delhi: A Malayalam film industry actor has lodged a complaint with the police alleging harassment from a male passenger on board a flight bound for Kochi. The incident occured in Tuesday during the Air India flight from Mumbai. The actor took to her social media handle on Tuesday night to open up about the 'disturbing incident'.
In an Instagram post, the actor called the fellow passenger 'inebriated and disruptive'. She even charged at the airline's ground staff and flight crew and called them 'disappointing'.
Despite sharing the incident with the air hostess, the actor reported that the only action taken was relocating her to another seat, just before the takeoff. After landing, she reported the incident to the airport and airline authorities, who redirected her to the police. The Malayalam actor also shared a copy of the complaint lodged with the local police via email in this regard.
The actor also accused her male fellow passenger for "misbehaving, including inappropriate physical contact”.
"I promptly reported the matter to the Air hostess on the flight. However, the only action taken was my relocation to a middle seat three, four rows ahead. Unfortunately, no measures were implemented against the harasser,” the woman said.
As per a PTI report, Nedumbassery police on Wednesday said they received an email from her and requested her to file a formal complaint.
"We are looking into the matter. We are trying to contact her to collect more details regarding the incident. However, we are yet to get her on the phone,” an officer told news agency, PTI.
Any further actions will be decided after contacting her, he added.
