Airline supertug 1 was repositioning a B787 from the ZZZ Hardstand (Terminal X) to Ramp Exit XX. As the supertug was backing onto the ramp area; Aircraft X was observed entering the XX Alleyway and taxiing around the aircraft under tow (which was still in motion) to Gate XXB in what seemed to be an unsafe maneuver; for which the supertug Operator had to stop abruptly to avoid contact with Aircraft X. While it is true that the XX Alleyway is uncontrolled; the Aircraft X Flight Crew should have stopped and contacted FAA Ground as the primary overseer of all ground movement.
Dispatcher reported a B787 was under tow and an A320 taxied around the towing aircraft.
