A Swiss tourist suspected of indecently assaulting three Cathay Pacific flight attendants on board a Hong Kong-bound flight was arrested when he landed in the city today, police said.
The man, 45, who was flying economy class, was accused of indecently assaulting the three women aged from 25 to 29 on separate occasions on a flight from Zurich this morning.
Hong Kong police were alerted shortly before 7:00 a.m.
After the plane landed at Hong Kong International Airport at about 7:00 a.m., officers went on board to investigate and arrested the man.
