Indian police have arrested a restless and disorderly passenger on a flight, after a woman on an Air India flight from New York complained that he had urinated on her in business class.

Police spokesman, Suman Nalvah, said today, Sunday, that the police arrested the passenger, Shankar Mishra, in the southern city of Bengaluru and transferred him to the Indian capital.

A New Delhi court has sent Mishra to jail for 14 days while the police investigate the complaint.

Sugata Bhattacharjee, another passenger on the flight, told reporters that he had seen Mishra drinking excessively and speaking incomprehensibly.

Meanwhile, the airline has suspended a pilot and four cabin crew while investigating the accident.
