I'm sorry but this is just so damn absurd. Air France cannot be blamed if 10, 20 indian passengers aren't allowed to step foot on french soil, that's the government or whomever or whatever entity is in charge of controlling who is allowed in or out the country. But here's the kicker for me; a statement from the second article.

Quote:
While most other passengers on board__Americans or Europeans or Indians with US passports__were taken to hotels, these passengers (the ten indians) were allegedly confined to the transfer desk.
Isn't it obvious why the indians were held back and the Americans, Europeans, and Indians with AMERICAN PASSPORTS were given hotels? Because they don't need visas! And you can't claim racial profiling if the article, the one claiming racial bias, says that "Indians with American passports were given a hotel", because that shows no bias! If those individuals were held back then most definitely you can play the race card, but since they were let go, because they had the proper documents to be allowed to into France, you cannot claim Air France did anything wrong.

Actually you can claim one thing, Air France could have provided better in the food department, seriously. Or given vouchers so that when they were let back in the terminal, they can get a decent meal.
