Ghosh’s presence prompted the Air India officials to lodge a complaint with Western India Football Association (WIFA). “The club officials gave me a letter stating that I have been indisciplined and questioned as to why did I travel back with Bimal from Pune. I explained to them that it wasn’t intentional on my part but they refused to believe.<br /><br />“They asked me to write a letter wherein I must apologise and they would drop the charges against me. As soon as I submitted the letter, they did a U-turn and said that now since I have accepted my mistake, they are to suspend me with immediate effect,” Nabeel said. <br /><br />Narrating the incident, he said, “After the game when I was looking to go back to the city as Balewadi is pretty much out of the main Pune city, a resident of the Air India colony saw me and offered to drop me back.<br /><br />“It was only when I entered the car that I saw Ghosh there.
