Jet Airways flight attendant Nidhi Chaphekar is undergoing treatment for burns, a Jet Airways manager said. He added that Nidhi Chaphekar has suffered over 15 percent burns and has a fractured foot, but is out of danger.
A fresh statement from the airline on Friday dismissed earlier reports which suggested that Chaphekar was in a medically-induced coma and said that her condition was stable.
The image of Chaphekar taken right after the blasts was one of the most searing photographs taken on Tuesday. It showed the 40-year-old mother of two from Mumbai, her bright yellow uniform ripped. Her hair was caked with soot as blood streaked down her face.
Meanwhile, arrangements were made for the family members of the injured crew members to fly to Brussels from India.
External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj spoke to Indian Ambassador Manjeev Puri in Brussels on Wednesday who informed her that the Indian Embassy officials are attending to the injured crew members in the hospital.
