India’s air regulator Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has issued a notice to Tata Group’s Air India, asking why action should not be taken against some officials for dereliction of duty during the incident.
As per the DGCA, prima facie, it emerged that provisions related to handling the Mumbai resident were not complied with.
The airline has announced a 30-day travel ban on the man and constituted an internal investigation to find whether there were lapses in handling the situation by the crew.
According to reports, the accused is the vice president of the Indian unit of a US-based multinational financial services company.
Delhi Police has formed several teams to arrest him, but he is still at large.
