Shankar Mishra, accused of urinating on a co-passenger onboard an Air India flight, told Delhi's Patiala House Court that he did not pee on the elderly woman but she urinated on herself.

Mishra's lawyer claimed that the elderly woman urinated on herself owing to her health conditions. His advocate told the court that the woman had been a Bharatnatyam dancer for over 30 years and it was normal for them to have urinary incontinence.

The argument came during Mishra's reply to the notice issued by the court on Delhi Police's application seeking his custody for interrogation.

Mishra's bail plea was rejected on Wednesday after he was arrested last week in Bengaluru.
