A Hong Kong-based businessman is suing Cathay Pacific for allegedly leaving his 12-year-old son unattended at an airport.
The South China Morning Post reported that Raja Ram Poosala had travelled from Hong Kong on his own in October last year, to visit his grandmother in India.
When the boy landed at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Hyderabad, he was reportedly picked up by a stranger at the airport, but was spotted by his uncle before he left.
His father, Ram Prasad Poosaala, is now suing the airline for US$250,000 ($354,288), accusing it of "deficiency of services and gross negligence".
He had specifically requested the unaccompanied minor service, but claims it was not fulfilled.
