An incident at Jaipur Airport involving a female SpiceJet security staff member and a male CISF personnel has led to legal actions and arrests. According to a SpiceJet spokesperson, the incident occurred while the female staff member was escorting a catering vehicle at the steel gate.
Despite holding a valid airport entry pass issued by the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS), she was subjected to inappropriate and unacceptable language by the CISF personnel. This included a request for her to meet him after his duty hours at his home.
SpiceJet is taking immediate legal action in this serious case of sexual harassment against its female employee and has contacted the local police. The airline has expressed its firm support for the employee and commitment to providing her with full support.
However, a senior CISF official provided a different account, stating that the female SpiceJet employee was asked to undergo mandatory screening at the nearby entrance for airline crew.
At the time, no female CISF personnel were available. The female employee reportedly became agitated and slapped the on-duty CISF personnel. A case has been registered against her, and she has been arrested.
The incident highlights a serious conflict and raises questions about the protocols and conduct of security personnel at the airport. Both parties have initiated legal proceedings, and the matter is under investigation by the local authorities.
