Air India has accepted the resignation of its Regional Director for East, Rohit Bhasin, who was allegedly caught shoplifting a wallet from a duty-free shop at the Sydney airport on June 22, airline officials said on Wednesday.
His last day at Air India would be August 31, one of the officials said.
“Bhasin’s suspension was revoked on Monday so that his resignation can be accepted on Tuesday. The revoking of suspension was just a technicality,” said the official.
Bhasin has been under suspension and not permitted to enter the premises of the national carrier since the date of the incident.
