Air India Suspends Employee After Immigration Clearance Lapse

Air India has suspended a staff member after three Italian nationals boarded a Delhi-Munich flight without completing mandatory departure immigration clearance, NDTV reported. The passengers had travelled from Amritsar to Delhi before boarding the international flight. According to the source, the lapse occurred earlier this month.

The supplied material does not identify the suspended employee, explain how the passengers were able to board or say whether they completed immigration procedures later. It also provides no information about disciplinary action beyond the suspension, the airline’s internal investigation or any action involving the passengers. The case concerns a failure to complete a required departure-clearance step before an international journey.
