An Indonesian man is set to be charged in court for allegedly exposing himself to a female cabin crew member while aboard a flight to Singapore.
Police revealed in a news release on Saturday (Mar 8) that they were alerted to the incident, which occurred on January 23.
According to investigations, the 23-year-old suspect allegedly unzipped his pants and exposed his genitals while seated.
Reports indicate that the man had covered himself with a blanket and had set up his mobile phone in video recording mode before revealing himself to a female flight attendant as she served his meal.
The flight attendant promptly left the man’s seat and reported the incident to her supervisor. Upon landing at Changi Airport, the man was arrested by airport police, and his phone was seized for further investigations.
The man is scheduled to be charged on March 12 with sexual exposure.
If found guilty, he faces a potential jail term of up to one year, a fine, or both.
“The police takes a firm stance against sexual offenders who commit indecent acts that cause alarm, distress and harassment to others, whether on the aircraft or in public,” stated the police.
“Such offenders will be dealt with sternly in accordance with the law,” the police added.
