India's Jet Airways, which launched service to London last year, confirmed in a weekend statement that it has suspended UK employee Asmin Tariq, who was one of 24 people arrested in London as a suspect in the terrorist conspiracy uncovered last week. Tariq was a security employee absorbed by Jet when the carrier ended its contract with his former employer, G4S, which has relationships with British Airways, Singapore Airlines, Thai Airways, SAS and others, according to Jet. "All G4S employees, including those transferred to Jet Airways, had been cleared by the UK Government Security Agency...to work at [London Heathrow]," the airline said. "Tariq is being suspended pending a full investigation, having not reported for duty for the past couple of days."
Gee, I wonder why he didn't report for duty?
Could it be because he is in the pokey?
