UNITED Airlines CEO Oscar Munoz will soon have to battle it out in court over a lawsuit filed against the airline after it forcibly dragged a passenger out of its plane, and while the airline remains a subject of ridicule on social media, a flamboyant tycoon has joined the party.
Known as the “king of good times”, 61-year-old liquor baron Vijay Mallya, whose now-defunct Kingfisher Airlines owes more than Rs9,000 crore to various banks in India, made headlines on Tuesday after he was arrested by Scotland Yard on an extradition warrant by India.
