In Mumbai, a tea seller named Mohammed Taufiq, also known as ‘Chotu Chai Wala,’ is speaking out about the cruel terrorist attacks in 2008. He helped many people escape during the attacks at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus when 166 innocent people lost their lives. Taufiq saw the horrible events unfold in front of him and helped guide people to safety, and took the injured to the hospital.
Now, he is sharing his thoughts on the recent extradition of Tahawwur Rana, a man linked to the attacks. Taufiq believes Rana should not receive any special treatment, like fancy food or a nice cell, and he wants him to face the death penalty quickly, preferably within a few months. He supports stricter laws against terrorists in India.
Taufiq pointed out that money can’t bring back the lives lost during the attacks, and he would celebrate if Rana gets punished with a death sentence. He also expressed gratitude to the US government for bringing Rana back to India. Rana is expected to arrive in New Delhi soon and will likely be held in a high-security jail.
On November 26, 2008, ten terrorists from Pakistan attacked several places in Mumbai, leading to widespread chaos and grief. Taufiq’s call for justice shows how deeply the events have affected those who lived through it.
