Patna: In a shocking incident, a man was pushed out of a running train in Bihar today by a railway official after he refused to pay a bribe. He died on the spot, police said.
The incident occurred near the Pursauli railway station in Kaimur district when the victim, Sarvesh Rai, had a heated exchange of words with a Travelling Ticket Examiner (TTE) on the New Delhi-Puri Purshottam Express over his luggage.
Mr Rai reportedly refused to pay a bribe for the extra luggage which angered the TTE who then pushed him out of the train.
