A senior police officer said they received information Sunday around 5.30 pm that a person urinated publicly at gate number-6 in the departure area of terminal-3 of the Indira Gandhi International Airport.
According to police, Mr Khan seemed to be in a drunken condition he created a nuisance at a public place by screaming and abusing other people.
