被罵“中國豬”女乘客委托律師與維珍航空溝通
【環(huán)球時報記者 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,,李維獨家向《環(huán)球時報》表示,,稱其已委托一家英國律師事務所與維珍航空就其法律責任,,及其疏忽的職責進行溝通,,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,,特別是在飛機起飛前。
因此,,我已向英國當地律師咨詢,。截至今天上午,我已委托一家英國律師事務所與維珍航空就其法律責任,,及其疏忽的職責進行溝通,。
這件事可能最終會上庭,在此我將不做任何進一步的公開評論,關于案件進展我謹以請求所有媒體聯系我的代表律師,,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的事件為之不平和震驚,。因此,我也想借此機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。
