It took a Brooklyn jury two hours Wednesday to convict a Staten Island perv of slathering a woman with lotion and molesting her as she slept aboard a 14-hour flight into Kennedy Airport.
Nadeem Quraishi, who is Pakistani, faces 10 to 16 months in prison and deportation for using victim Stephanie’s own Nivea lotion to grope her last October on an Air Emirates flight from Dubai to JFK.
Quraishi, 43, showed no emotion as jury foreperson announced he was guilty of both counts against him – sexual abuse and assault.
Stephanie, who bravely faced her assaulter each day in Brooklyn federal court during the three-day trial and testified against him, wept tears of joy with her family.
Outside the courtroom, the 25-year-old said she was “happy” with the verdict — and said Quraishi’s videotaped confession to cops did him in.
“It didn’t make sense to me. It was condemning to him, I think. He really couldn’t hide anything at that point,” she said about the recording, which she watched Tuesday for the first time.
Stephanie testified that she was asleep during the assault but woke up with her private parts doused in lotion underneath her floor-length maxi dress.
“I’m not denying the fact that … my behavior was inappropriate,” Quraishi admitted to cops shortly after the plane landed that day.
Asked whether she had a message for her assaulter, she only said, “It’s pretty much karma for him at this point.”
“Mentally, I can move on now,” she added.
Stephanie’s civil lawsuit against Emirates is pending.
Quraishi and his lawyers had no comment.
He’ll be sentenced Aug. 12.
