A woman in her 70s was soaked and smelled of urine when a drunk male passenger urinated in public while flying business class on Air India. Indian police later announced that the drunk was identified as Shankar Mishra, a 34-year-old senior executive of US giant Wells Fargo, who was arrested late at night on the 6th. The behavior was expelled from the bank.
A woman in her 70s recently complained to Air India executives, alleging that on November 26, 2022, when she took Air India business class from New York to Delhi, a drunk passenger on the plane pulled her pants down and he urinated in public, leaving the women’s clothes, bags, shoes were wet, the seats smelled like urine, but the crew members did not respond positively, and the man who was off duty was safe and sound.
This exaggerated in-flight drunkenness caused an uproar in Indian society. Air India announced last week that it would ban the man involved in the incident from flying with the airline for 30 days, but was criticized by netizens for being too light.
Air India also reported the incident to police last week, prompting Indian police to make arrests. According to reports by the New Delhi Television Station (NDTV) and the Times of India (Times of India), the police said the disorderly man was Misira, the 34-year-old vice president of Indian affairs of Wells Fargo, and the police went to Misira on the 6th. Arrested at his home and office in Marathahalli, an eastern suburb of Bangalore, a technologically advanced city in Karnataka province, he was nowhere to be seen.
Sources revealed that Misira turned off his cell phone to avoid being traced by police, but police still relied on clues such as conversations with friends through communication software and the use of credit cards to trace his whereabouts. and arrested him in the middle of the night of the 6th. Misira will be detained for 14 days and will be subject to further investigation. Indian media also spread the embarrassing image of Misira surrounded by the media after his arrest. His mask was pulled very high, covering half of his face.
According to the woman’s complaint, she told the flight attendant on the plane that she no longer wanted to see Misera’s face, but Misira was brought to her to apologize later, which made the woman “stunned.” Silas started crying and kept apologizing to the woman.
In response to allegations that he urinated in public after drinking, Misira’s lawyer said that Misira had spoken to the woman, paid Indian rupees 15,000 (about NT$5,600) in compensation and cleaned the woman’s clothes. After a month, the compensation was returned, saying that the compensation could not be accepted.
After the embarrassment of urinating on the plane, Misilla not only discredited and faced a judicial investigation, but also fired him on the 6th from the Wells Fargo Bank where he worked. Wells Fargo released a statement saying, “Wells Fargo requires employees to uphold the highest standards of professional and personal conduct. We are deeply concerned by these allegations and this individual has been terminated from Wells Fargo.”
