Airline fires employee for sheltering criminal brother

New Delhi: A senior security officer , employed with private airline Kingfisher, found himself out of a job on Tuesday after the Delhi police wrote to the airline management explaining how the official had allegedly harboured a wanted criminal from UP even after being aware of his crimes.
The officer in question was allegedly sheltering his own brother, Molli, who had reportedly kidnapped the wife of a colonel of the Indian Army posted at Allahabad and then murdered her.
When contacted, a spokesperson for the airline confirmed the incident and said all necessary action had been taken within the past 24 hours.
It was after the UP police traced Molli's mobile phone location and found it to be around the T-3 terminal in the IGI Airport, that they contacted their counterparts in the Delhi police.
"We detained the accused from outside T-3 terminal who then confessed to the crime. It was 48 hours ago that we informed our UP counterparts who then came and took away the accused on a transit remand,'' said a senior Delhi police cop.
He alleged that Molli's brother was trying to arrange for tickets so that Molli could flee the country. Police claimed that he had even helped his brother to escape from UP on Saturday, claimed cops.
