A 34-year-old man died on Saturday morning after he was hit by a taxi at the driveway in front of the Budget Terminal. The Indian man, who was a cleaner on duty at the airport, was pronounced dead at the scene by the paramedics at 7.13am.
At about 6.50am, the police were informed of an assault by a passenger on a 57-year-old taxi driver along the stretch of Airport Boulevard in front of SATS In-flight Catering Centre 1.
According to a statement released by Comfort Delgro, the passenger who was headed for Changi Airport started getting violent towards the taxi driver during the journey. The taxi driver later activated the distress button and got out of the cab. Police said that the passenger was later seen re-entering the taxi and driving towards the direction of the Budget Terminal.
The passenger who drove the taxi is a 30-year-old Chinese National. He was detained at the scene.

Hope they can have some sense to detain him in changi instead of releasing him on bail.
I am just wondering what is the urgency that the guy have to hijacked the taxi and caused the death of another man.
-
waiting for official report on wat happened in the cab.........
-
i read somewhere he was in chirpy mood. then suddenly snapped.
-
he should be detained under ISA. he hijacked a taxi, am i right?
-
anyone wanna donate to the cleaner's family?
-
it was really a sad chapter before the closure of BT for major renovation... fortunately our sg police was able to catch hold of him before he fled off... more security and STOP GAP measures needed to prevent taxi from hijack as well as being used as crime vehicle.... maximum sentence should be granted .... fund raising is needed to help the deceased family...
-
TD will have lots of explanation to do.....

Chinese national in Budget Terminal tragedy faces 3 new traffic charges
Published on Mar 23, 2012
A Chinese national facing a robbery with hurt charge was charged on Friday with causing the death of a cleaning supervisor through dangerous driving at Budget Terminal.
Yuan Zhenghua, 30, a technician, was charged last Sunday with punching cabby Yeow Chuwee Lam on the back and strangling the 57-year-old while robbing him of the Citicab taxi at Airport Boulevard at about 6.50am last Saturday.
The three fresh charges state that he drove dangerously by causing the taxi to veer from the road onto the pavement at a fast speed before hitting cleaning supervisor Chandra Mogan Panjanathan, 34, and a traffic light pole.
The incident resulted in the death of the Malaysian father of four, who was operating a cleaning machine in front of Budget Terminal departure hall at the time.

Sometimes I get the feeling that in this country, if you want to kill someone, you should use a vehicle as a weapon.
If this bugger had stolen, say, a baseball bat from a sports shop and bashed in the skull of someone standing in his way, he would have been charged with murder (or at least manslaughter).
This bugger stole a taxi and ran down a cleaner standing in his way. What is he gonna get charged with? Death due to a rash act.
Anything less than a manslaughter charge would be injustice.
