Kuala Lumpur: In one of the weirdest acts onboard an international flight, a 20 year old Bangladeshi man allegedly stripped naked and watched porn. Later, he also tried to molest a flight stewardess and also attacked her. The incident happened on a flight from Malaysia.
Official sources reported that shortly after the Malindo Air flight departed from Kuala Lumpur on Saturday, the man took his clothes off and started watching pornography on his laptop. The man, a student at a Malaysian university, initially put his clothes back on at the request of cabin crew, added the report. But he then tried to hug female crew members while on his way to the toilet, and when his advances were rejected he became aggressive and attacked a stewardess, the paper said.
The cabin crew and passengers reportedly managed to subdue him and his hands were tied up with a piece of cloth for the rest of the flight.
According to a Malaysian website, the man also masturbated and urinated on his seat.
There was no indication as to why he was acting strangely.
The airline, a Malaysian subsidiary of an Indonesian company, declined to confirm all the details but said in a statement that a ‘disruptive passenger’ was tied up on the flight to Dhaka, and was arrested on arrival.
It explained: ‘The crew on board has followed the standard operating procedure in restraining the passenger from causing further disruption onboard the flight.
‘The disruptive passenger was accompanied by Dhaka security team upon arrival and he has been put to jail by the authorities there.
