Mumbai:
In a shocking case of road rage, a 23-year-old in Mumbai was killed when he was held by his shirt and dragged alongside a running car for about 30 meters. The boy died after the wheels of the car ran over him.
Rashid Tagala's life was cut short, all because he overtook a car at the Mumbai International airport on Tuesday morning.
It was a case of road rage, but the police have now registered a case of murder against three unknown people. They are now reviewing the airport CCTV footage to track down the missing car.
Rashid was stopped by the occupants of the Honda City that over took him. He got down to talk to the occupants of the car, but they dragged him for about 30 meters and then threw him off. Rashid was dragged under the wheels of the car resulting in his death.
His family is angry at the men who so callously took their son's life.
"We know that they were in a black Honda City. The police is investigating and we hope they find them soon," said Gulzar Amin, one of the family members.
They are hoping that the rickshaw driver who took Rashid to the hospital will help identify the culprits.
Rashid's case is the latest tragic addition to the incidents of road rage that have now become regular occurrences.
In July 2008, a motorist was murdered in Navi Mumbai for trying to overtake
In May this year, a motorist attacked a BEST bus driver because the driver had not allowed him to pass
Rashid's family will be praying that his case doesn't end up as a mere statistic.
