She took to social media platform X on Friday to give her first account of the harrowing experience that left her“rattled and disturbed” after she boarded a UAE-bound flight from Kolkata.

The post reads,“Sharing an incident that happened with me on the flight from Calcutta to Abu Dhabi (transit to Boston) [sic].”

She further thanked the Etihad Airlines staff and the Abu Dhabi police for their support, cooperation, and action during the incident.
