Lucknow, Aug 2 (SocialNews.XYZ) A woman and her husband were detained and later released on a personal bond after an alleged altercation with a ground staff member of Akasa Air at the Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport in Lucknow, officials said on Wednesday.
The incident occurred on Tuesday while Flight QP 1525 was preparing to depart for Mumbai.
