Woman refuses to get frisked at Bengaluru airport, attacks CISF cop

A woman refused to undergo the mandatory security check at Bengaluru airport and attacked a constable on Tuesday, according to a Times of India report.

Neha Gupta from Siliguri, West Bengal, was supposed to take a flight from Bengaluru’s Kempegowda International Airport on Tuesday morning. Instead of flying to Bagdogra on her AirAsia ticket, however, Gupta was detained by airport police for attacking a CISF constable.

The report says that Gupta arrived at terminal 2 of Kempegowda International Airport and reached the pre-departure security check area around 10.50 am on Tuesday. However, she refused to get frisked there.

“At 10.50am, the woman came for pre-departure checks at the CISF bay. A woman constable, Sushila Kumar, asked her to come into the enclosure for a pat-down but she refused to be checked for reasons unknown. She soon got into a heated argument with the constable who informed her that she must be frisked, failing which she won't be allowed to board her flight,” a CISF officer was quoted as saying by Times of India.
