In a statement issued through his lawyers, Shankar Mishra said he was in the process of appealing the decision in accordance with the applicable rules.
Disagreeing with the findings of the internal inquiry into the alleged incident on board an Air India flight where he was accused of urinating on an elderly woman, Shankar Mishra said on Friday the four-month flying ban on him is based on an incorrect understanding of the layout of the aircraft.
In a statement issued through his lawyers, Mishra said he was in the process of appealing the decision in accordance with the applicable rules.
Mishra was drunk when he allegedly urinated on an elderly female co-passenger in the business class of an Air India New York-Delhi flight on November 26 last year. In a surprise twist, he later claimed the woman had urinated on herself.
The airline on Thursday banned Mishra from flying for a period of 4 months while saying an independent three-member internal committee found him to be covered under the definition of 'unruly passenger'.
