Bollywood actress Zaira Wasim’s harasser arrested

Bollywood star Zaira Wasim was visibly upset when she had an unpleasant experience during her flight as a man allegedly harassed her. On Sunday, Wasim, 17, alleged that she was harassed by a male passenger sitting behind her on an Air Vistara flight from Delhi to Mumbai on Saturday night.

Wasim recounted her terrible experience on an Instagram feed saying that a male passenger sitting behind her extended his feet and kept massaging her back and neck. She said that she initially thought that turbulence during the flight caused his foot to rest on her.

“The lights were dimmed, so it was even worse.

“It continued for another 5-10 minutes and then I was sure of it. He kept nudging my shoulder and continued to move his foot up and down my back and neck” while she was “half-asleep”.

“Neither the passengers nor the crew came to my aid.

“This is terrible… No one will help us if we don’t decide to help ourselves,” Wasim said in the Instagram video.

`Meanwhile it has been reported that the alleged harasser, identified as 39-year-old businessman Vikash Sachdev, has been arrested. Sachdev was traced through his airline ticket, authorities explained, adding that he will be produced in the court today.

The alleged assaulter has been booked under Indian IPC’s “Section 354 (Assault or criminal force to woman with intent to outrage her modesty) and relevant sections of Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO)”, according to Economic Times.
