An FIR was registered against a passenger for unruly behaviour during a flight between Dubai and Mangaluru, prompted by a complaint from an Air India Express crew.
The security coordinator of the flight, Siddharth Das, complained against Mohammad BC at the Bajpe police station, police said.
According to the police, the incident took place on the early morning of 9 May and the FIR was filed the same evening.
As per police statement about the incident, Mohammed travelled from Dubai to Mangalore on the night of May 8 aboard an Air India Express flight, arriving at Mangalore International Airport at 7:30 a.m. the following day.
During the flight, after departing from Dubai, Mohammed entered the restroom. Upon exiting, he approached the crew inquiring about an individual named Krishna, who was not listed as a passenger on that flight.
“He allegedly behaved in an unruly manner, creating disturbances during the flight, causing inconvenience to both the crew and fellow passengers. His actions endangered others as he made threats of jumping into the sea from the aircraft,” police said.
He further harassed the crew by posing irrelevant questions and repeatedly pressing the service button without valid reason. He also removed the life jacket he was wearing on the plane, handed it to the crew, and stated his intention to use it upon landing. Allegedly, he expressed a desire to pilot the aircraft over the sea when the flight was flying over the Arabian Sea, as per the police.
