The passenger, Sajid Saleem, going to Islamabad from Karachi aboard PK-308 flight was repeatedly asked by the air-hostess to put out his cigarette.
On this, the accused got angry and reportedly slapped the air-hostess and warned her of dire consequences.
However, the accused was arrested as soon as the plane landed at the Islamabad airport.
Sajid misbehaved with the police and claimed they didn’t have the right to detain him.
Meanwhile, the police have registered a case against the accused on charges of assault.
