WashijaClear Intentions
It was obvious what Hewings intended to do with the girl. He had convinced her that she will be safe with him and manipulated her to come and see him. That is why she bunked her school and took a cab to travel all the way to Gloucestershire alone. If it wasn’t for the brave taxi driver, the girl would be in really big trouble now.
Back From Abyss
The heroic act of Satbir Arora saved this girl from being captured by a sick pedophile like Hewings. He and his wife managed to get this girl out of trouble and she has the rest of her life ahead of her thanks to the kind strangers. Arora’s intuition was correct since he sensed something was off with her right from the moment she stepped inside his taxi.
Trained Professional
Arora revealed later that he had undergone special safeguarding training a few months before this incident took place. The training included an activity that helps him in identifying someone’s behavior when they secretly needed help but don’t speak up about it. And that is why he was able to make a judgment call for the girl.
Training For All
The Gloucestershire Police was really impressed by Arora. They emphasized how important such training is for drivers as they find themselves in criminal situations more often than we like to believe. Training them to make the right call and to follow the correct series of actions in emergency situations is highly critical.
Recognition
Satbir Arora’s courage and strength were rewarded and recognized by the Gloucestershire Police. He was granted the highest honor for his bravery. He saved the 13-year-old from a doomed fate. Arora was extremely grateful for the recognition but most of all he was grateful that he was at the right place at the right time. The outcome might have been different had she taken a different taxi that day.
