A taxi driver is lucky to be alive after he was slashed across the throat by a robber.
Munir Ahmad needed 14 stitches to a deep cut beneath his chin and now says he can’t return to his job.
The 39-year-old was attacked by a thug he had picked up from outside a pub in Middleton, near Rochdale. The culprit asked to be driven to Stakehill Industrial Estate on Rochdale Road. Once there he brought out the knife and demanded cash.
Mr Ahmad, who has two young daughters, was slashed once across the throat. He managed to stagger out of the car to raise the alarm but the attacker followed him and tried to stab him again.
Mr Ahmad grabbed his arm to protect himself from a further blow from the knife before the thug drove off in his car. His cash bag and a mobile phone were taken.
