A human rights lawyer was caught on camera abusing the Air India crew after the crew refused to give her extra drinks.
Irish lady behaves in such an abusive, racist way with @airindiain crew for being refused extra drinks. Very decent AI crew behaviour. Arrested on landing. Wonder if she should have been controlled onboard with handcuffs. @JitiBhargava @Mohan_Rngnathan pic.twitter.com/kSTDmGOEm5

In the video, the unidentified Irish lady is seen talking aggressively to the Air India crew. She identifies herself as an international criminal lawyer and says, “I am working for all your people, the f**king Rohingyas, the f**king people of Asia for four years as international criminal lawyer, didn’t take any money for it, by the way, but you won’t give me a f**king glass of wine. Is that correct?”
Call to boycott Air India
She then goes on to threaten that she will call to boycott Air India for not giving her a bottle of wine. She again asserts that she is a “f**king international criminal lawyer” and refers to the Air India crew as “f**king, stupid c**nts”. She then again demands a bottle of wine “and get it over”. When someone threatened that a legal action could be taken against her, she lost her cool again.
Even the other passengers are embarrassed. So shameful pic.twitter.com/IttfjDwBiM

“I am a human rights lawyer. I am an international criminal lawyer to the f**king Palestinian people. You think I am scared? Are you threatening me?” she said, followed by another barrage of abuses before settling back in her business class seat.
The incident took place on 10th November on an Air India flight AI 131 from Mumbai and she was reportedly arrested on landing at Heathrow.
As per reports, the woman was already in an inebriated state after having consumed four quarter bottles of red wine. She increasingly turned unruly and when she demanded more wine, she was declined. She then threatened to push over the dessert trolley and took an open bottle of wine without permission.
Despite warnings, she did not behave herself. In fact, as per the Times of India report, she came and spat on the Air India crew member before twisting her arm and injuring her.
