A TAXI driver suspended for nine months after leaving two women stranded, CAN still pick up passengers after a legal query
Abdul Mohith was banned from being a cabbie by
Welwyn Hatfield Council’s hackney carriage committee earlier in the year, but appealed to the magistrates.
As the WHT has previously reported, the magistrates decided to over-rule the councillors and suspend the 52-year-old driver for nine months.
But it is now unclear whether their decision was legally sound and an investigation is taking place.
A court official said: “There’s no result on that appeal, as there is a legal problem.
“The magistrates made a decision, but they are not sure it’s legal.
“There is no result, it is pending.”
As the driver from High Street, London Colney, is still waiting for the appeal to be resolved his Hackney Carriage licence is still valid for him to drive and pick up passengers.
