KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia Airlines has dropped a bombshell, saying its former flight attendant, who is being held in a Paris detention centre for alleged sexual assault on a passenger, was terminated after he admitted to committing misconduct. National Union of Flight Attendants Malaysia (Nufam) president Ismail Nasaruddin said this was revealed by MAS human resource personnel during a conciliation meeting with the Industrial Relations Department in Shah Alam on Tuesday.
