The victim Bansi Chauhan, who is originally from Abu Road in Rajashtan, moved to the city in 1984 and has been living on the pavement at Tulsi Pipe road ever since. At 1.30 am, an inebriated cab driver decided to stop near the pavement where Chauhan lives with 200-odd other people and attempted to abduct an eight-year-old girl. When a few men noticed the driver trying to kidnap her, they ran to her aid and caught hold of the driver following which a scuffle broke out. However, the driver managed to get away from the angry men and got into his cab to flee the scene.u00a0
