Kolkata, Jul 13 (IBNS): A taxi driver was arrested on Thursday for allegedly entertaining an air hostess's molestation inside his moving cab in Kolkata, reports said.

According to reports, an air hostess of Air India boarded an airport-bound shuttle cab from Kaikhali area at around 6:30 pm. on Wednesday.
