'The pilots were very abusive'

The Air India air hostess, Komal, who has claimed she was molested by the pilots gets support. A colleague comes forward and says the pilots misbehaved and were very abusive in the cockpit. TIMES NOW has accessed the deposition made by air hostess Chhavi Jaggarwal. It listed the details of the ugly brawl on board the Air India IC 884 Sharjah-Delhi flight.
The victim, Komal, has alleged she was abused by the captain when she went into the cockpit.
Statement of air hostess Chhavi Jaggarwal:
"I saw Flight Purser Amit Khanna going inside the cockpit. I saw him bowing in a very respectful manner and extending his arm to shake hands with Captain Aditya Chopra. But, the Captain didn't shake hands and was very furious."
"After take off, air hostess Komal went inside the cockpit and apologised regarding the block time. After five minutes, there was again a cockpit call. I went inside, Captain Ranbor Arora was very angry and said both Flight purser Amit Khanna and air hostess Komal hadn't wished the co-pilot Aditya Chopra."
"Captain Ranbir Arora asked me to call Komal and Amit. I called the two and they went inside the cockpit. After a couple of seconds, I heard loud noises and abusive language. I am sure it wasn't Flight Purser Amit's voice but I am unsure whether it was Captain Aroroa or Captain Chopra's voice."
"Later on. I came to know that Captain Ranbir Arora has tried to hit air hostess Komal and she was totally shaken up and was crying and she had bruises on her hand as if she was manhandled. Even 'J' class passengers were standing and observing everything."
"After we were done with our services, Captain Chopra came outside the cockpit and asked to see flight purser Amit Khanna. Captain Chopra apologised for his abusive language and violent behaviour and requested him to finish the matter there and then."
