Woman's background not pertinent to price she must pay for slap
A FEMALE PASSENGER slapped the face of an airport employee in Tianhe Airport of Wuhan, Central China's Hubei province, on Thursday, when the female employee refused to allow her to check in for an Air France flight because she was late. Beijing News comments:
The incident was actually settled after Zhang was detained by the police for 10 days according to the Security Administration Punishment Act. However, Air France then blacklisted Zhang, and the airport's management has decided to apply to the Civil Aviation Administration of China to blacklist her as well. If approved, Zhang would not even be able to take a domestic flight.
The airport's punishment bid certainly goes too far. Once on the CAAC's blacklist, she will most likely to be banned by all airlines in China. This punishment would be too heavy and unfair, and is suspected of infringing upon Zhang's rights and interests as consumer.
