A cab driver was allegedly assaulted by security guards at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport. The incident occurred when Naveen Harvani, who was waiting for a customer at the airport, got into an argument with the security guards. Harvani has filed a police complaint in this regard.
According to Harvani, he received an online booking and was driving towards the domestic airport arrival terminal when he was stuck in traffic. He called the customer to inform him about the delay, but received no response.
Thereafter, Harvani stepped out of his car and walked towards the terminal to inquire about the customer. At the terminal, a heated argument ensued between him and the security guards. The situation escalated when the security guards physically assaulted Harvani with sticks and pipes. Additionally, the guards began removing all the auto-rickshaw drivers from the airport, resulting in three drivers and Harvani being injured.
Harvani sustained injuries in the assault and had to be shifted to hospital for treatment. He has now filed a police complaint against the security guards involved in the incident.
