London: A 50-year-old Irish human rights lawyer who hurled expletive-ridden racist taunts at Air India cabin crew after being refused alcohol on a Mumbai-London flight last year has apparently killed herself in England, media reports said.
Simone Burns was sentenced to six months in jail in April for her abusive tirade and spitting at the flight attendants during the flight on November 11.
The Irish woman was released from Bronzefield women’s prison on licence on May 20 and was found dead at the foot of cliffs in East Sussex 13 days later -- on June 1, the UK media reported.
Viral footage of the racist rant showed Burns demanding that she be served a fourth bottle of wine on her business class flight to London.
It captured her shouting, "I’m a f***ing international lawyer" after she was denied more booze on the flight.
She screamed: "I have done so much for you f***ing Indians and f***ing Pakistanis, you should be grateful to me."
Burns also called the staff "Indian money-grabbing c**ts" and smoked a cigarette in the toilets during the outburst.
She was given a verbal warning by cabin crew followed by a written warning from the captain, but her behaviour continued.
She shouted: ’F**k Air India is useless, I will say what I want.’ The woman also spat in the face of one of the cabin crew and grabbed their arm, abusing other crew members and passengers.
A spokesman for Sussex Police was quoted as saying by the UK media that "the body of a woman found at Beachy Head on June 1 has been identified as 50-year-old Simone Burns from Hove".
