Taxi flees with my belongings
Taxi flees with my belongings
From Pos Kota
On Saturday, Oct. 31, 1994 I arrived at Soekarno-Hatta airport
from Tokyo by Philippine Airlines at about 8 p.m. After clearing
my luggage, I took a taxi to Terminal A to buy a Sempati Air
ticket to Manado for the following day. It was a President taxi.
Unfortunately the ticket office had already closed. Then I moved
to Bouraq, only to find it had closed too. So I hurried back to
Terminal E.
I asked the driver to wait while I booked a ticket. It took me
around five minutes. When I went back to the taxi, which had
parked not far from the gate, I was shocked to find that it had
gone. I reported the incident to the airport Police Office. The
taxi had fled with my clothes and electronic appliances worth
about Rp 5 million.
