被罵“中國豬”女乘客委托律師與維珍航空溝通
【環(huán)球時(shí)報(bào)記者 邢曉婧】中國女乘客李維(化名) 3月1日在乘坐維珍航空公司VS250次倫敦飛往上海的航班上遭受不公正待遇,,維珍航空尚未就此事正式道歉,。23日,,李維獨(dú)家向《環(huán)球時(shí)報(bào)》表示,稱其已委托一家英國律師事務(wù)所與維珍航空就其法律責(zé)任,,及其疏忽的職責(zé)進(jìn)行溝通,不排除最終會告上法庭,。
以下為李維聲明全文:
最近幾天對我來說非常困難,,特別是在我被羞辱、歧視和不得不在恐懼中完成整個(gè)飛行之后,。
正如我之前所說,,在被另外一名乘客歧視和侮辱,發(fā)生沖突之后,,我沒有想到我會以這樣的方式被維珍航空的代表對待,。不管同行的那位乘客健康狀況如何,我期望維珍航空在處理此類沖突的過程中給予更多的幫助,,特別是在飛機(jī)起飛前,。
因此,我已向英國當(dāng)?shù)芈蓭熥稍?。截至今天上午,,我已委托一家英國律師事?wù)所與維珍航空就其法律責(zé)任,及其疏忽的職責(zé)進(jìn)行溝通,。
這件事可能最終會上庭,,在此我將不做任何進(jìn)一步的公開評論,關(guān)于案件進(jìn)展我謹(jǐn)以請求所有媒體聯(lián)系我的代表律師,,黃精明Jackson Ng律師,,來自英國倫敦陳劉律師事務(wù)所(Chan Neill Solicitors)。
我一直為身為中國人而感到自豪,,很欣慰看到許多同胞都對這類性質(zhì)的事件為之不平和震驚,。因此,,我也想借此機(jī)會感謝所有人對我的支持以及將其發(fā)布的媒體。
The last few days have been very difficult for me, especially since the flight where I was humiliated, abused and had to sit through the entire flight in fear,。
As I previously stated, I did not expect to have been treated the way I did by representatives of Virgin Atlantic after a humiliating racial discrimination and abuse incident by a fellow passenger. Regardless of the fellow passenger's state of health, I expected much more from Virgin Atlantic in dealing with such incidents, especially before the plane had taken off,。
As such, I have consulted British lawyers and as of this morning, instructed a firm of lawyers to communicate with Virgin Atlantic on the issue of the failings of their legal responsibilities to me。
As this matter could potentially end up in a Court of Law, it would be prudent for me not to make any further comments publicly and I would respectfully ask that all media enquiries be directed to my lawyer, Jackson Ng of Chan Neill Solicitors in London, United Kingdom,。
I have always been proud to be Chinese and glad to see that many people are shocked that something of this nature could happen. Therefore, I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all the people who have given me support and for publicising this matter,。
