Kolkata, July 11 A woman, stated to be of unstable mind, allegedly slapped a private airlines employee and twisted the identity tags of others after refused permission to board a flight for late arrival, creating a ruckus at the city airport today.

She was handed over to police but later allowed to go without pressing of charges.

Airport sources said the 35-year old woman reached the airport at 3:50 pm and with just 10 minutes to go for the Kolkata-Bangalore flight to leave, the airlines staff at the counter told her the collection of boarding pass and other formalities could not be completed in such short time.

The visibly agitated woman then slapped the Spicejet employee at the counter and rushed towards two of his colleagues and tore their shirts and twisted their identity tags.
