I know everyone has some scary stories about events they or an acquaintance witnessed at the hand of some crooks. Let's document these so people would know what situations they can avoid. Things like gangs, some mullahs, some mobile thieves, etc.
My story:
One of the family acquaintances, a young fella, friends was returning from a late night dinner party in Lahore. Driving along he spotted an old, well dressed man who waved at his car asking for a lift. He stopped, and the old man sat in his back seat.
He asked the old man:
Driver: "Baba ji kidhar drop kardoon?" (Where can I drop you?)
Baba: "Batata hoon, pehle sheeshay se peechay dekho" (I'll tell you but look behind through the rear view mirror).
What he saw was him flashing a lot of bombs hooked onto his jacket.
Then he told him I want you to ram your car into some police check point and I will blow up the car. Then he forced him to start searching for some police check point. All the time talking about the glories of martyrdom that he would achieve from this act. After a while he received a call, and he heard the old man say:
"Ok phir ajki operation cancel karte hain" (Alright then we'll cancel today's operation).
Then he asked him to go back to where he picked him up. He went there, before getting out of the car he reiterated his comments on martyrdom and said:
"Aj na meri, na tumhari maut likhi hui thi. Shahadat ka mauqa tumhe phir kabhi milega, bhoolna matt jo maine kaha" (Neither of us were destined to die today. You'll get your chance at martyrdom later, don't forget what I've said)
All the while the guy is like "yeah, ok, yeah".
Then he sped away like there's no tomorrow. He says he's so traumatized he's afraid to get into the car again. Imagine if he would have rammed his car and tomorrow when they identified him, people would just think he was some terrorist too.
Lesson? Never ever give anyone a ride.
