Qatar Airways flight diverted after angry female passenger discovers husband is ‘cheating’

An enraged woman forced an airliner to make an emergency landing after she discovered mid-flight that her husband was apparently cheating on her.

The woman, an Iranian national, was travelling from Doha to Bali with her husband and child on a Qatar Airways flight on Sunday, India’s Hindustan Times reported on Tuesday.

Angered by the discovery, the woman reportedly started to hit her husband. The cabin crew intervened but were unable to calm the situation.

With the in-flight episode spiralling out of control, the pilots decided to make an unscheduled stop in the southern Indian city of Chennai.
