IndiGo President and Whole Time Director Aditya Ghosh said that the ex-staffer who is claiming to be the 'whistleblower' is the one who instigated the incident and prevented the customer from boarding the bus.


"Even while the investigation was going on we immediately suspended the involved employees," Ghosh said.
