Two women stopped minicab driver from kidnapping girl by hurling abuse at him from bus stop



Two women stopped a minicab driver from kidnapping a 14-year-old girl by hurling abuse at him, police said.

The girl was threatened after a silver saloon car pulled by beside her in south-east London as the driver tried to persuade her to get in.

But detectives said two women who were waiting at a bus stop nearby launched a verbal tirade at the man who was then scared away from the scene in Turpington Lane, Orpington on January 14.

Scotland Yard said: "Two women who were waiting at a near by nearby bus stop intervened, verbally abusing the man and telling him what they would do to him if he didn’t leave her alone. The suspect drove off in the direction of Bromley Common."

A 26-year-old man was arrested two days later on suspicion of attempted kidnap. He has been bailed until a date next month.

Detective Constable John Farthing from Bromley CID added: “We would like to trace the women who intervened and stopped this potentially escalating into a much more serious incident."

Anyone with information is asked to contact DC Farthing at Bromley Police’s CID on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.

Minicab driver handed community order for threatening teenage girl in Turpington Lane, Bromley


A minicab driver, who threatened a teenage girl in Bromley before two women came to her rescue, has been handed a community order.

Abdul-Muhib Hannan, of Imperial Way, Chislehurst, pulled up in a silver saloon car alongside the 14-year-old girl, who was walking along Turpington Lane at around 3.30pm on January 14.

The 26-year-old threatened her in an attempt to get her into his vehicle but two women waiting at a nearby bus stop in Brosse Way intervened.

Officers arrested Hannan on suspicion of attempted kidnap but he was later charged with a public order offence.

He pleaded guilty at Bromley Magistrates’ Court to using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour towards another person intending to cause them harassment, alarm or distress.

Hannan was sentenced at the same court on March 20 to a community order requiring him to undertake 150 hours of unpaid work.

He was also ordered to pay a £60 victim surcharge and £85 court costs.
