Digital Desk: On Monday, police arrested an Italian woman on a Vistara flight from Abu Dhabi to Mumbai for causing a commotion in the air.

Paola Perruccio, an Italian woman, was caught by Sahar Police for her violent and disorderly behaviour. The Italian woman was issued a notice by the police.
According to a Vistara spokeswoman, the incident was reported to the appropriate authorities following the company's Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
"Vistara stands firm in its zero-tolerance stance against disorderly behaviour that jeopardises the safety, security, and dignity of its customers and employees," stated a spokeswoman.
According to the airline, the pilot made several announcements to reassure the other passengers onboard of their safety and security, and the security services on the ground were notified to take prompt action upon landing.
Vistara stated in the statement, "We confirm that on January 30, 2023, there was an unruly passenger aboard Vistara flight UK 256 from Abu Dhabi to Mumbai. Because of the customer's continuous unruly and violent behaviour, the captain issued a warning card and decided to restrain the passenger."
After Air Vistara flight UK 256 landed in Mumbai on Monday morning, police said they got a complaint from the cabin crew. The flight left Abu Dhabi at 2:03 a.m. on Monday.
