On September 18, a tragic accident on the Borivali Highway claimed the life of 32-year-old IndiGo cabin crew member Kainoor Mistry. Ms. Mistry, a resident of Mira Road, was returning home after work when she was involved in a road crash. She was riding in a Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire driven by 25-year-old Vijay Khose, who was allegedly unable to control the vehicle as it hit a bridge ledge on the Western Express Highway.
Ms. Mistry sustained serious head injuries and passed away the following evening in Bhaktivedanta Hospital. Her eight-year-old son is now left without a mother.
The incident has raised serious questions about the safety of airline staff during their commute to and from work. Police initially booked Khose under Sections 125 and 281 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, but later added Section 106(1) for causing death by negligence following Ms. Mistry's passing. Khose has been served a notice and is currently in the police station.
Despite the driver's claims of not being intoxicated and not fleeing the scene, the accident has reignited concerns over the safety measures in place for airline employees who are transported to and from their work.
