DRUNK AEROFLOT PASSENGER REPORTEDLY BROKE FLIGHT ATTENDANT'S LEG

George Seryogin was accused of groping the woman during the flight from Tokyo to Dulles International Airport in Virginia last summer, NBC Washington reported, citing an FBI affidavit.

The creep allegedly began by touching the woman’s knee, then began groping her and placing a blanket over her leg, making it difficult for other passengers to see him, the affidavit says.

“The victim was also quietly crying, with tears streaming down her face” as she pushed his hands off her, according to the document.

A grand jury indicted Seryogin on one count of abusive sexual contact aboard an aircraft in flight.

“My client firmly denies the allegations against him,” said his attorney, Mary Nerino, who offered no additional comments.

The news station’s review of federal court records revealed at least four other sex assault cases in flights to Dulles or Reagan Washington National Airport since 2013.
