A man has been awarded a Chief Constable’s commendation after his quick actions helped to save the life of a man who was stabbed eight times in Manchester.
Naveed Mubashar from Crumpsall was called to pick up two passengers from an address in Blackley.
At the end of their journey Naveed noticed a car pull up behind his vehicle and saw five men get out of the car.
One of the men ran to his vehicle and stabbed his passenger who fell back onto the seat. He was stabbed a further seven times in both his arms and legs.
The taxi driver drove straight to the hospital, talking to the victim the whole time to reassure him.
Naveed waited for three hours at the hospital and assisted the police with their investigations, including giving up his vehicle for forensic tests.
