Taxi Driver.

Posted on December 7th, 2008 in current events by lizzie3



Early on Saturday morning a kind, Happy-go-lucky Afganistan taxi driver who had been in New Zealand for seven years was tragically stabbed near the intersection of Worcester and Barbadoes street.

The mans name was Abdulrahman Ikhtiari and in my opinion did not deserve to be killed. However the police might have a clue who killed the man. Detective Senior Sergant Mike Johnson said that they were after two men in their mid twenties had been seen fleeing from the scene.

The Police believe the man died of a stab wound. One big one and a few minor ones. The really sad thing is that he left a wife and five young children who are all too shocked to speak to the public.

I think whoever did this are very thoughtless people to have done this to some friends and family. However my advice to them is don’t give up and somehow you will get through all this and gradually go back to life. Finally I think that everyone should be careful about who you hang around with and what you do. You only have one life and it is too short to waste!

    a second.
