Drunk plane passenger drops his trousers
and urinates in aisle in midair flight
A drunken plane passenger on a flight from India to Birmingham
shocked passengers when he pulled down his trousers and
urinated in the aisle.
Jinu Abraham had to be restrained until the plane had landed
after being aggressive to cabin crew.
The hospital porter, 39, of Hollow Croft, Northfield, admitted
being drunk on an aircraft and was fined £300 at Birmingham
Magistrates Court.
He was also ordered to pay £500 compensation, a victim
surcharge of £30 and £185 costs.
John Cardiff, prosecuting, said Abraham had boarded the Air
India Boeing 787 Dreamliner on January 19 this year with his 10-
year-old son.
During the flight he had become aggressive after drinking
alcohol, refusing a request to return to his seat, the Birmingham
Mail reports.
There also came a point when cabin staff refused to serve him
any more booze because of his state and he was warned about
his behaviour.
“About 40 minutes prior to landing he removed his
trousers and stood in the aisle. “He pulled down his boxer
shorts exposing his buttocks and then began urinating on
the floor and seat of the aircraft.
“He was restrained by crew with plastic handcuffs and
seat belts for the rest of the flight and was arrested on
landing.”
Mr Cardiff said the estimated cause of the damage was £500.
When later quizzed Abraham said he had drunk two whiskies, that
he was on anti depressants and could not remember anything
about his actions.
Alan Newport, defending, said both the defendant and his wife,
who had been married for 11 years, worked for the NHS. His wife
is a theatre nurse.
He said he had been on medication after one of his children died
at birth and that his wife had already returned from India on a
separate flight with their 15- month-old child.
“Unfortunately because of a mix up at the airport in India
his medication had been placed in the hold. “He was
without medication and nervous about flying and was
concerned about his wife’s welfare.
“He effectively tried to self medicate and it went
dramatically wrong, not just for him, but the passengers
on that flight.
“Fortunately no one was injured and the flight was able
to land without an emergency request.
“ He was shocked and surprised about what was said
about his behaviour.
“He accepts it must have been incredibly upsetting for
passengers and crew and possibly frightening for those
people on board in that confined environment.”
