He then spreads his arms open as if to show the worker his own shirt.His colleague continued manning the desk, seemingly oblivious to the drama while the hotel worker tried to shield himself from the attack.The pilot’s unprovoked attack on the hotel worker was caught on CCTV.

The budget airline said the pilot was suspended following the April 30 incident at a hotel in the city of Surabaya. “If the pilot [known as AG] is found guilty after the investigation, Lion Air will apply firm sanctions by dismissing him from the company.”
