New Delhi

Delhi police on Friday issued summons to 6-8 crew members, including the pilot of the Air India flight in the urination incident in a New York-Delhi flight last year.

According to the complaint filed on Wednesday by the victim, the crew brought the accused to her seat and forced her to face him as he begged to be spared arrest.

The woman was "stunned" when the offender was brought before her and he "started crying and profusely apologising".

The complainant has alleged that the pilot vetoed giving her a seat in the first class after the incident.

"The flight crew told me that the pilot had vetoed giving me a seat in first class," she wrote in the complaint.

A drunk passenger urinated on a woman flyer in the business class of an Air India flight last year on November 26.

The accused is identified as Shankar Mishra and is a resident of Mumbai.

According to the Delhi Police official when the team reached his residence in Kamgar Nagar area in Mumbai, he was not there.
