An unruly male passenger hit a female member of the Air India crew and pulled another by her hair on a London-bound flight, forcing it to return to Delhi around 15 minutes after take-off on Monday morning.
In a statement, Air India said the passenger did not heed verbal and written warnings and continued with unruly behaviour, including physical harm to two of the cabin crew members. “The pilot in command decided to return to Delhi and the passenger was handed over to the security personnel upon landing.”
The statement said the flight returned to Delhi shortly after departure due to the “serious unruly behaviour” of the passenger.
