New Delhi : A 62-year-old businessman has been arrested for allegedly molesting a Vistara airlines air hostess. 

“A member of our cabin crew operating flight number UK 997 from Lucknow to Delhi on March 24, 2018, reported an incident of sexual harassment by a passenger. Vistara does not tolerate abusive or unruly behaviour by passengers that puts the safety of its staff and other customers at risk, or compromises their dignity. We have reported the matter to the police and other relevant authorities," said Vistara Airlines.

The accused passenger, identified as Rajeev Vasant Dani, was arrested by the Delhi Police soon after the plane landed on the airport. 

Vistara Airlines has informed that they will provide full cooperation to all the authorities" probing the case.

“The air hostess, who hails from Meghalaya, was touched inappropriately by the accused more than once. She reported the matter to her seniors and some passengers also saw this disgraceful act,” the Times of India quoted unnamed sources as saying.

Taking matter seriously, the passenger's name has been added to No-Fly list (NFL).
