Women's panel gives clean chit to pilot in molestation case

"There is no sexual harassment by the commander," NCW member Wansuk Syiem, who was a part of the probe committee, said.

"It is just misbehaviour from both sides. I must say some arguments were there, which caused the commander to physically push her," she said.

Singh had flied an FIR against the pilots stating that she was allegedly molested by them in the cockpit, and had also approached the NCW.

An Air India probe panel has already given a clean chit to the two pilots who were charged with sexual harassment by the airhostess in the wake of a mid-air scuffle between them.

A senior Air India official had said the five-member enquiry committee, which went into her complaint about the incident on board the Sharjah-Lucknow-Delhi flight IC-884 on October 3, has concluded that whatever complaints airhostess Komal Singh had made regarding sexual harassment "were an after-thought".
