Air India has issued a statement after a video showing the top officials of one of the airline's joint ventures partying went viral just days after the deadly plane crash that killed 270.
Air India SATS (AISATS), which is owned by Air India Ltd and Singapore-based SATS Ltd, is a provider of airport ground handling and cargo handling services in India.
The joint venture was responsible for preparing the load sheet for the Ahmedabad–London Gatwick leg of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner that went down on June 12.
Footage reportedly shows AISATS' Chief Operating Officer Abraham Zachariah dancing with other members of staff while music blares in the background, which was said to be taken during a party at the firm's Gurugam office on June 20.
The video, which has gone viral on social media, has sparked outrage as it came at a time when families of victims were waiting to receive the remains of their loved ones.
