New Delhi: A SpiceJet woman employee arrested who slapped ASI at Jaipur airport on Thursday. She slapped a male ASI following an altercation over security screening at the Jaipur airport. The incident was caught on a CCTV camera at the airport.

According to CISF officials, Anuradha Rani, a SpiceJet employee was stopped by ASI Giriraj Prasad over not having valid permission to enter through a gate while she was entering the airport with other staff members around 4 am. She was then asked to undergo screening for airline crew at a nearby entrance but no female CISF personnel were present there at the time, they added.

The ASI then called for a female colleague to complete the security check but an argument had already escalated by then which ended with the female employee slapping the assistant sub inspector, said Jaipur airport station house officer Ram Lal.

According to SpiceJet spokesperson official statement, the employee had a valid airport entry pass. The company has also alleged that the female employee was subjected to inappropriate and unacceptable language by the CISF personnel, including asking her to come and meet him after his duty hours at his home.

Police have registered a case against the female employee under sections 121 (1) (voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty) and 132 (assaulting public servant) of Bharat Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
