DGCA has imposed a fine of 30 lakhs on the airlines for the urination incident in Air India flight. According to news agency ANI, the pilot’s license has been suspended for 3 months. Meanwhile, the counsel for accused Shankar Mishra said that the four-month ban imposed on his client is wrong.
Accused Shankar Mishra’s lawyer Akshat Bajpai has expressed displeasure over this decision of the airlines. Akshat said that his client disagrees with the committee’s decision to ban him for four months. We will take action against it.
The inquiry committee mistakenly assumed that seat 9B was in business class, whereas there is no seat 9B in Kraft’s business class. The flight has only 9A and 9C seats. The committee simply assumed that my client might have urinated on the woman.
Actually, Air India had formed a committee to investigate the allegations against Shankar Mishra, which banned Shankar from flying in airlines for 4 months.
