Cabbie dies pleading, 'Help.. Help..Help me Bhaiyya mujhe nikalo'
Kolkata: Rescuer Bipin is unlikely to ever forget the afternoon of March 31, 2016, not least the cabbie buried under the debris of the flyover who passed away pleading for help.
"When I reached the spot (of the collapse) with my civil defence team, I heard a taxi driver groaning. I could hear him say, ' bhaiyya mujhe nikalo' . He kept looking at us and he kept bleeding," Bipin said. "Once or twice, we tried to pull him out, but his pain was excruciating. I saw him die in front of my eyes. The cabbie's death acted as a major motivating factor for us rescuers. For the next two hours we hacked, sawed and hammered our way into debris," he added.
