Kochi: Incidents of misdemeanour by passengers on flights are rising.

In the latest such crime, Malayalam actress Divya Prabha has alleged that she was harassed by a fellow passenger when she was travelling by Air India flight AI-681 from Mumbai to Kochi on October 9.

Divya wrote on Instagram that the man was intoxicated and disruptive, and harassed her during the flight.

She claimed that she reported the harassment to the cabin crew, but the only action taken was to relocate her to another seat just before take-off.

“After landing at Kochi airport, the issue was reported to airport and airline authorities, who redirected me to the police aid post in the airport,” Divya wrote.

In her official complaint to police, Divya wrote: “The incident involved a passenger seated in 12C, under the influence of alcohol, switched his seat to 12B with me (12A) and initiated an argument with no logic, regarding the seat’s location (window or aisle), the individual misbehaving, including inappropriate physical contact.”

Divya also requested people to support her to raise awareness on passenger safety.
