TAXI DRIVER LEFT SHAKEN AFTER MAN THREATENED TO KILL HIM IN SANDY, BEDS
A taxi driver has been left shaken after a passenger threatened to kill him and left without paying. Majid Khan had been doing a part- time shift for Anglia Cars on 17 March, when he picked up two woman, two men and one child who wanted to go to Sandy Post Office in Pleasant Place. He said: “I helped put a buggy and an electric scooter in the boot” and helped out again when they got to the destination. But when the group said they’d get the payment from inside their
66
property, Majid was attacked and racially harassed. He said: “As I got to the alleyway, I got pinned down by the boy and then the bulky man threatened me and said ‘I will kill you’. “That’s it, I thought I am going to die and then they ran away.” Majid – who contacted the police – was left shaken, minus the £28 fare plus fuel. And he’s now calling on the public to contact the police if they saw anything. Majid added: “I’ve also requested Bedford council, going forward,
put in place a pay-straight-away or no pick up policy – and I have requested a formal meeting with Bedfordshire police crime com- missioner on the safety of cabbie.” A Bedfordshire Police spokesman said: “We’re appealing for any witnesses to contact us quoting crime reference no: 40/14621/23.” Cllr Colleen Atkins said: “Taxi and private hire drivers play a crucial role in providing safe and reliable transportation for the community and should not be subjected to abuse for the service they provide.”
