Air India has confirmed an incident in which an intoxicated man urinated on a female passenger (a senior citizen) sitting in business class on board an Air India international flight. The incident took place on November 26 when an Air India flight AI 102 was flying from New York to Delhi. The inebriated man walked over to the victim's seat just after lunch when the lights were turned off. He then unzipped his pants and flashed his private parts to her. He reportedly stood there even after urinating, until one of his co-passengers asked him to leave. The incident came to the forefront when the female passenger wrote to Tata Group Chairman N Chandrasekharan expressing her disappointment by stating that the cabin crew were highly insensitive towards the situation. They simply gave her a pair of pyjamas and slippers to change into. They apparently took no action against the culprit.When India Today contacted the airline, they said that the incident was reported to the regulatory authorities and maintained regular contact with the female passenger throughout the probe.V“We are aware of the incident involving a passenger who acted inappropriately, affecting another. We have reported the incident to police and regulatory authorities, who will investigate further and take any appropriate action against the misbehaving party. Throughout the investigation and reporting process, we also kept in touch with the aggrieved passenger and her family," Air India said in a statement. An internal committee has been constituted by the airline to put the man in no fly list.
