A British businessman has been arrested in India after he tried to grope a fellow passenger on a plane, police said.
Technical supplies salesman Barry Anthony is said to have forced himself on a 35-year-old businesswoman, who was sitting next to him on the Silk Airlines flight.
Officers said Antony, 60, was 'heavily drunk' when he boarded a flight to Hyderabad, in central India.
The New India Express reports that Anthony was travelling on board flight MI745 from Singapore.
The newspaper reports that the woman confronted Anthony, and said airline staff provided statements and CCTV footage to police.
Flight crew radioed ahead to alert police at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, where Antony was arrested as he left the plane.
According to the Deccan Chronicle, Anthony had regularly visited Welding Alloys Tubular Wiring Private Limited in Nacharam, a suburb of Hyderabad, to promote his company’s products and to train its employees.
The Washington Post reports that this summer in the US alone there were at least four incidents of passengers being groped on board flights.
