New Delhi: On the incident of a Mumbai man allegedly urinating on an elderly woman on an Air India flight in November, the latest development is his employer, Wells Fargo, sacking him, NDTV reported.
Wells Fargo said that allegations against the accused, 34-year-old Shankar Mishra, were disturbing.
In a statement of Friday evening, the company said that it holds its emp[loyees to the highest standards of professional and personal behaviour and, therefore, the allegations against Mishra were "deeply disturbing". It said that the man had been terminated from Wells Fargo.
Meanwhile, Mishra is absconding, and a lookout notice has been issued on him, along with police initiating a manhunt.
During a flight from New York to Delhi on Air India, an inebriated Mishra allegedly unzipped his pants and urinated on a woman inside the business class. However, later he begged the woman not to report him to the police.
However, in another news, Mishra released a statement claiming that the matter had been settled with the affected co-passenger. Mishra's statement said that compensation was paid to the elderly woman, India Today said.
The latest development in the case comes as the police are on the lookout for the man to quiz him.
Mishra, who was allegedly drunk, unzipped and urinated on the woman on a New York-New Delhi Air India flight, reports said.
The incident caused widespread discussion on social media after the whereabouts of the man were not initially known.
Now Mishra has released the statement through his lawyers.
The statement said that the WhatsApp messages between the accused and the lady clearly showed that the accused had gotten the clothes and bags cleaned on November 28.
It further said that the man afterwards had them delivered on November 30.
"The lady in her message has clearly condoned the alleged act and has displayed no intention to lodge a complaint," it added.
The woman's grievance, which she lodged a complaint on December 20, was about the "adequate compensation' being paid by Air India, the statement claimed.
