A 45-year-old cab driver was murdered in Greater Noida after he was attacked by three passengers as per the reports. The victim’s son, who recorded his father’s last call on Sunday night which was made minutes before his death, alleged that he was forced to chant “Jai Shri Ram”. The call was recorded for the next 40 minutes and Sabir sought help from Mayur Vihar Phase I police station. “His tongue area was badly bruised, ears were bleeding, there was a big cut on his face,” Sabir said. “This is clearly a case of mob lynching...We are Muslims, but we have a right to live” said 20 yr old Mohammad Sabir, victims son.
