British Airways crew member accused of raping colleague during Singapore layover
The suspect has been arrested and two female staff members flown home following the incident
The Singapore Police Force (SPF) confirmed on Thursday that a report had been lodged and that investigations were ongoing.
The British High Commission also said that it was “providing support” to a British man in Singapore and that it was in contact with local authorities.
British media outlets, including The Sun and The Daily Mail, first reported on Wednesday that a male British Airways crew member had been arrested in Singapore, after being accused of raping his colleague, a stewardess.
The reports stated that the rape allegation was made after the crew had gone on a night out during a layover.
The man is said to have flown with British Airways “for years”, according to The Sun, citing an unnamed source.
