A man aboard Spirit Airlines attempted to rape a sleeping passenger

A federal jury convicted 35-year-old Prabu Ramomorty for sexual harassment aboard Spirit Airlines. A citizen of India, who worked for two years on a work visa at a US IT company, faces life imprisonment; if he ever gets out of prison, he will be immediately deported to India, writes SF Gate.

The incident occurred during a night flight from Las Vegas to Detroit seven months ago. 22-year-old passenger, whose place was near the window, fell asleep. She was horrified when she woke up and saw that the hand of her neighbor, who was sitting on the middle chair, was in her panties. The man unzipped her pants and blouse.

The girl jumped up, trying to escape into the tail of the plane to warn the flight attendants. But for this she had to overcome two obstacles: Ramamorti and his wife, who was sitting on the spot near the aisle.

The jury discussed the sentence for three and a half hours before approving the decision.

During the testimony, Ramamorti first said that he had taken a pill and fell asleep. He said that he had done nothing and had learned from his wife that a passenger was sleeping on his lap next to her.

The family gave conflicting testimony. The wife told the investigators that she requested to change the place, since the neighbor fell asleep on the lap of her husband. But the flight attendants noted that no one, except for the injured woman, had asked them to transfer to another place. The name of the victim is not revealed.

Later, Ramamorti told the FBI agent that he “possibly” unbuckled the woman’s bra and her pants and tried to touch her genitals. But, according to him, he did not succeed.

The FBI department, which investigates crimes committed on airplanes, reported that in recent years, the number of cases of sexual violence in the air has increased. Last year there were 63 reports of sexual harassment aboard aircraft, whereas in 2014, the figure was at the level of 38.
