A businessman has been found guilty of s£xually ass@ulting a 15-year-old girl while she was asleep on a flight to Switzerland.
The 44-year-old married man attacked the teenager, who was sitting next to him, during the nine-hour journey from Mumbai to Zurich.
The perpetrator was on a business trip to Belgium when he carried out the attack.
The girl and the man had a brief, superficial conversation before the minor fell asleep.
The man then approached her and performed s£x acts on her and himself.
He confessed to the attack in the Bülach District Court and stated that he realized he had made a mistake. He also admitted that the young woman had not consented.
It comes after the National Council of Switzerland and the Council of States agreed on the formula 'no means no.'
The amendment came into effect a year ago and means rape is now considered to have occurred if the victim indicates through words or gestures that they do not consent to the sexual act.
