Disruptive naked passenger restrained on Malindo Air flight
A passenger had to be restrained during a Malindo Air flight from Kuala Lumpur to Dhaka during a bizarre mid-flight meltdown.
A Bangladeshi man was detained on arrival in Dhaka after removing his clothes during the flight, urinated on his seat and was allegedly pleasuring himself while watching porn on his laptop.
After walking near naked down the aisle to the bathroom he attacked a flight attendant when asked to put his clothes back on.
Other passengers then helped the crew to restrain the man for the rest of the flight.
"The crew on board followed the standard operating procedures to restrain the passenger and causing any further disruption to the crew and passengers onboard," Malindo Air said in a Facebook post.
"The airline will continue to stay vigilant to ensure passengers travel safely."
The 20-year old student, who hasn’t been named, was detained by authorities but no charges have been filed against him yet.
