"I Drank Because...": What Mumbai Man Told Co-Flyer After Peeing On Woman

Elaborating on what happened on the flight, Dr Sugata Bhattacharjee said that he realised that Shankar Mishra was "incoherent" and had flagged it to the crew.

A passenger on the Air India New York-Delhi flight where a drunk passenger urinated on a woman told NDTV that he filed a detailed complaint but the airlines did not take any action.

"My moral responsibility was to stand up for a fellow passenger, and that is why I wrote a two-page complaint. And it went nowhere," Dr Sugata Bhattacharjee told NDTV. Dr Bhattacharjee was sitting next to Shankar Mishra, who was arrested by Delhi Police on Friday, six weeks after the sordid incident.

Elaborating on what happened on the flight, the US-based doctor said that he realised that Mishra was "incoherent" and had flagged it to the crew.

"When he was asking me the same question multiple times, I realised that he may be incoherent. I did flag it to the crew, and he just smiled. Don't think he understood the gravity," says Dr Bhattacharjee.
