Slain Indian taxi driver Hiren Mohini's wife Falguni Mohini and daughters Yashvi and Hetvi have been presented with their citizenship certificates in Auckland on March 26.
The certificates were presented at a specially organised ceremony at the offices of National Member of Parliament Kanwaljit Singh Bakshi last Friday.
Hiren Mohini died of injuries inflicted on him by his killer passenger in the early hours of February 1. He was tearfully farewelled on February 4 at West Auckland’s Waikumete cemetery and crematorium by family members who were joined by hundreds of colleagues, friends and neighbours.
Nearly two months after the brutal killing of Hiren, the killer still remains at large and is believed to have fled the country. Media reports have said the police have identified the killer and have investigated his residence and questioned flatmates.
The police department is believed to be following up leads with their counterparts in China where the alleged killer is believed to have fled.
Meanwhile another Indian taxi driver has been robbed at knife point and pushed out of his vehicle in Auckland last Saturday. The police are still investigating. The taxi drivers and transport ministry officials are meeting again this week to propose new measures for the safety of drivers on the job to be presented to Parliament after the Easter holiday break.
In the months since Mr Mohini's brutal killing, two other taxi drivers have been reportedly been involved in violent incidents at the hands of their passengers in the city of Tauranga.
