Actor Zaira Wasim has alleged she was molested by a co-passenger on board a Delhi-Mumbai flight, prompting the Maharashtra State Commission for Women to seek an inquiry into the “shameful” incident.
The airline said it has already submitted initial report to the regulator Directorate General of Civil Aviation about the incident which created an uproar and invited all-round condemnation.
The Mumbai police have registered a case against an unknown person in connection with the episode.
Vistara, which is run under a JV between Tata Sons and Singapore Airlines, regretted the “unfortunate experience” and apologised to Wasim.
It also said senior members of the management team have been flown to Mumbai to meet the “Dangal” actor, who narrated her ordeal on Instagram via live video.
Wasim said she was on a Vistara flight on Saturday night from Delhi to Mumbai when a co-passenger sitting behind her put up his feet on her armrest.
“We are deeply concerned and regret the unfortunate experience Zaira Wasim had onboard our flight last night. We continue to give this case our highest attention and are extending our full support to all relevant authorities for the investigations underway,” the airline said in a latest statement issued late Sunday evening.
In addition, Vistara has submitted an initial report to the DGCA and also given all necessary details to the police, the airline said.
