An Egyptian gentleman who was detained at the Suvarnabhumi aircraft trying to leave the country early on Tuesday night was detained at the airport in Iran for allegedly groping a woman taxi-motorcyclist on Sunday while riding a motorcycle. &nbsp,

The lady, who gave her name as Nampueng, 40, told authorities she picked up the man at the Queen Sirikit Convention Centre in Klong Toey, Bangkok, on Sunday night. He had used a mobile app to reserve her bicycle.

The customer started touching her body and trying to put his hand inside her pants during the trip, according to Ms. Nampuemg. She made the decision to travel to a local police station.

Otherwise, the person directed her to come back to where they came from. She headed up, thinking her traveler may cease his unexpected behaviour, but he did not. &nbsp,

She went to a local police hall at Witthayu crossing, but it was unmanned, she said, but she called out to visitors for support.

The Egyptian offered to pay for the trip and told her to stop shouting. When she continued to call for aid, he ran away without paying. She claimed that some tried to catch him but were unsuccessful.

Eventually, she complained to the Lumpini officers, giving them the ride-app’s registered names and phone numbers. Therefore, researchers looked at recordings from security cameras and established the identity of the man.

The suspect was arrested at the Suvarnabhumi aircraft immigration table as he was about to depart Thailand around 1.47am on Tuesday, and was held for&nbsp, legal action, authorities said.

Ms. Nampueng claimed to have used the software for about two centuries. This was the first day she experienced for misbehaviour. She had quit driving for a while, she said.
