A 72-year-old woman, whose ordeal on an Air India flight in November when a co-passenger allegedly urinated on her had made headlines, has moved the Supreme Court seeking a direction to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and airlines to frame SOPs to deal with such incidents.
The woman said she was constrained to file a petition as Air India and the DGCA failed to treat her with care and responsibility after the incident.
Shankar Mishra, who allegedly urinated on the woman in an intoxicated condition in the business class of the Air India New York-Delhi flight on November 26 last year, was arrested from Bengaluru on January 6 and sent to judicial custody on January 7.
