Woman alleges misbehaviour by co-passenger onboard Bagdogra-bound SpiceJet flight

A woman passenger has alleged misbehaviour by a co-passenger onboard Kolkata-Bagdogra flight and charged that the airline dissuaded her from filing a formal complaint. 

However, SpiceJet said they promptly intervened to address the situation and further investigation was hindered as the woman passenger did not file a written complaint.

According to reports, the alleged incident happened to the 26-year-old woman passenger while she was travelling along with three of her family members on the Kolkata-Bagdogra SpiceJet flight on January 31. 

The victim, who was initially seated away from the family was asked to shift to the other side of the aisle in their row so that they could see each other. 

The victim said she moved to a row where a man was sitting in the middle seat with the window and the aisle seats vacant, sources reported.

However, the woman passenger said she was discouraged by the airline staff from filing a written complaint.
