Target unsuspecting women : American Airlines deliberately makes woman sit with known sexual predator, blames her for getting assaulted

Get the Full StoryOf late, it is getting disappointingly clear that the safest mode of traveling, aka flights, is no longer capable of making women feel secure in their minimum space. And seems like American Airlines is hell bent on leading this disgusting trend. Just recently, one of their flight attendants told a woman to stop complaining about the man sitting next to her and masturbating because apparently, men do stuff like that. But this vile mindset is not limited to one or two employees of the airlines, as yet another passenger has sued them for deliberately subjecting her to mental and physical harassment by making her sit next to a known sexual predator who has a record of sexual misconduct on flights including American Airlines. Instead of banning this man a Texas businessman named Cherian Abraham from their flights, despite allegedly being fully aware of his past record, or at least making sure a woman is not seated next to him, they actually allowed the harassment to go on, not taking any step to intervene or come to the woman s aid. The woman residing in the Bay Area has filed a lawsuit against the airline, detailing that the flight was from San Francisco International Airport to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport in April 2024. In the flight, post the lights were dimmed, the man allegedly began deliberately attempting to touch her breasts and placed his hand on her upper thigh. As per the lawsuit filed in a federal court in San Francisco the woman yelled at the man to stop, raising her voice high enough to say No! twice. And yet, no American Airlines employee intervened or made any attempt to investigate her clear distress. This made her feel help and she froze, experiencing severe emotional distress for the remainder of the flight. What further exposed the twisted mentality of the airlines staff was the gate agent s response when the woman reported the alleged assault victim-blaming her for getting assaulted in the first place and adding that there is nothing the airlines could do. After putting up a complaint on the airline s website and only getting an airline representative who dismissed her claims, the woman decided to sue them, and the businessman for causing her emotional distress, fraudulent concealment, sexual battery, and negligence. American Airlines must answer for every deliberate decision that allowed a known sexual predator to continue flying unchecked and to target unsuspecting women. In her lawsuit, the woman has accused the airline of robbing her of a basic sense of safety, which was then made worse by their inaction and indifference reinforced that violation by treating her assault as a logistical inconvenience. Has American Airlines taken any steps? After the woman s complaint on their site? No. But they were forced to cooperate and ban the businessman from ever flying with the airline after he was arrested in March 2025 as a result of an FBI investigation of multiple accusations of the 54-year-old man sexually abusing women on flights.
