An Air India spokesperson expressed their concern regarding the incident, stating, “A passenger on our flight AI866, operating from Mumbai to Delhi on June 24, exhibited highly inappropriate behavior, causing great discomfort to fellow passengers. In order to handle the situation to the best of their ability under the circumstances, our crew promptly segregated the passenger for the remainder of the flight and issued a warning.”
Upon landing in Delhi, the security personnel took custody of the passenger. They subsequently registered a police complaint (FIR) and reported the matter to the regulator. Air India maintains a zero-tolerance policy towards such unruly and unacceptable behavior. The spokesperson emphasized that they are fully cooperating with the ongoing investigations.
The spokesperson promptly informed the pilot-in-command of the situation and sent an immediate request to the company for security upon arrival. The incident left several passengers agitated, as stated in the FIR.
Upon arrival, the head of Air India security also personally attended to the situation and accompanied the passenger to the local police station.
A case was registered under sections 294 (obscene acts) and 510 (misconduct in public by a drunken person) of the Indian Penal Code, as stated in the report.
On November 26, 2022, an intoxicated man allegedly urinated on a female co-passenger during an Air India flight from New York to Delhi.
