As per reports, the 33-year-old, Dr Sudipta Mohanty, is a primary care Physician at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. In May 2022, he was aboard a Hawaiian Airlines flight from Honolulu to Boston with his fiance. 

The 14-year-old girl who alleged that the doctor masturbated on the flight said that he covered himself in a blanket to the neck. She also said that she saw his legs bouncing up and down. This disgusted her so much that she moved to an empty seat nearby. As soon as she landed in Boston, she told everything about the lewd act to her grandparents. Her grandparents then filed a Police complaint. 

What did the doctor claim?

The doctor on the other hand tried to prove himself not guilty. He said that he was flying with his fiance who was sitting next to him. "My fiance was sitting next to me on that flight, and neither of us can understand why this happened to us," he said in a written statement. 

He further added, "I have dedicated my life to caring for others as a physician, and it has been heartbreaking to step away while I dealt with these false accusations."

A few days ago, a 14-year-old girl's alertness and swift action helped police in nabbing a flight attendant who used to film minor girls in the restrooms of the plane. 

The accused, Estes Carter Thompson III, was caught red-handed in September 2023 by a 14-year-old girl whom he tried to film in the restroom. As per reports, on September 2, 2023, Thompson was onboard a plane travelling from Charlotte, North Carolina, to Boston, Massachusetts. He found the 14-year-old girl waiting outside an occupied bathroom in the main cabin. He approached her and escorted her to a first-class bathroom. Before she entered, Thompson went inside, saying that he wanted to wash his hands and that the toilet seat was broken.

When the girl entered the bathroom, she noticed red stickers underneath the toilet seats with handwritten warnings that stated "INOPERATIVE CATERING EQUIPMENT," "REMOVE FROM SERVICE," and "SEAT BROKEN."  When she turned to flush the toilet, she noticed an iPhone peeking outside the stickers. The girl took a photo of the iPhone and the stickers. As soon as she got out of the bathroom, Thompson entered inside.

The girl went and showed the pictures to her parents. Her mother then rushed towards the bathroom, but the iPhone and the stickers were no longer there. The father confronted the flight attendant, Thompson, but he locked himself inside the bathroom for five minutes before the plane landed. The parents alerted the captain, who called the ground authorities in Boston.
