A Qatar Airways flight was forced to make an emergency landing after a woman started beating up her husband for cheating.
According to the Hindustan Times, the woman of Iranian origin accessed her husband’s phone using his fingerprint while he slept only to unearth his philandering ways.
Angered by his extramarital affairs, she started hitting him repeatedly. The flight attendants tried to calm the couple down but the unnamed lady was hearing none of it.
At a loss of what to do, the pilots decided to make an emergency landing in the southern Indian city of Chennai on Sunday.
New Indian Express reported that the airport's director, G Chandramouli, said the woman was drunk and was held at the airport until she sobered up before the family was allowed back on a plane.
According to sources, no police action was taken, however, the couple and their child were removed from the plane, which then completed its journey from Doha to Bali.
"The family spent the day at Chennai airport. No police action was taken," a source told the newspaper.
