Angry wife gets Qatar Airways flight diverted to Chennai

Chennai, Nov 6: A Bali-bound Qatar Airways flight from Doha had to be diverted to Chennai thanks to the ruckus created by an inebriated and angry woman passenger, who had just went through her husband’s flirtatious chats with another woman.

According to sources, the Iranian lady reportedly unlocked her sleeping husband’s mobile phone by putting his finger on its scanner and then she realized that he was allegedly cheating on her.

The woman, who was a few drinks down by then, reportedly got into a fight with her husband and also misbehaved with crew members who tried to pacify her. With the situation getting out of hand, the pilot decided to divert the plane to Chennai. Once there, the Iranian family — husband, wife and their young child — were offloaded there and the plane resumed its journey to Bali.

Since there was no security issue and given the reasoning offered by the lady, authorities in Chennai kept the family at the airport. Once the lady got a little sober, the family was put on a flight to Kuala Lumpur and they were to take a connecting flight to Doha from there.

Confirming this case of unruly passenger, a Central Industrial Security Force official said: "On November 5, at about 10 am, Qatar Airways flight QR-962 (Doha-Bali) was diverted to Chennai. A lady along with her husband and a child, all Iranian nationals, were offloaded by Qatar Airline as the lady passenger (who was intoxicated) misbehaved with crew members inflight. They were sent to Kuala Lumpur by Batik Air flight 6019 for further travel to Doha."

Qatar Airways said in a statement, "In respect of passenger privacy we do not comment on individual cases.

Bengaluru, Mar 31: Bengaluru Central Crime Branch on Tuesday seized as many as 1,000 fake N95 masks amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

However, the police are yet to make arrests in the case.

Investigation in the case is underway and more details in this regard are awaited.

Recently, Noida Sub-Divisional Magistrate with a team from the Health department busted a fake sanitiser and mask factory.

Notably, the Central government recently had brought masks and hand sanitisers under the Essential Commodities Act up to June 30 as the novel coronavirus pandemic led to shortages and black marketing of these items.

Any person found guilty under the Act may be punished with imprisonment up to seven years or fine or both and can be detained for a maximum of six months.
