The video clip, which has been viewed more than a million times on Twitter, shows driver Abid Mustafa Satti, from Birmingham, remaining calm while being racially abused by the man, who swears throughout.
‘The words do hurt us. But I chose the profession and I have to face these challenges – if I chose to be in the Army I would face battles, and this is the same.’ says Abid Mustafa Satti
Abid Mustafa is being made the first honorary ambassador of the West Midlands Taxi Drivers’ Association (WMTDA) for the way he handled the incident in Birmingham. The father-of-four had spent the last few weeks shuttling vital Covid-19 samples for the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation trust during the pandemic.
West Midlands police have arrested and charged a man in connection with this disgusting racist abuse. However, Abid Mustafa Satti announces to forgive the racist as per his religious teachings and requested to the police, not to take any further action.
