It is with a profound sense of sadness that we have learned of the death of our fellow union member, Muhammad Asim Riaz, who tragically passed away while trying to save the lives of his friend's two children after they fell into distress in water over the weekend. Heart-wrenchingly, one of the children, Rana Haris Ali, also passed away alongside Muhammad, as did the child's mother, Edina Olahova. Muhammad was known, personally, by several members of our branch committee and by many members of our union branch. We are all in a state of shock and grief, and our hearts are heavy today. Life is the most fragile of things and to see that fragility so close to home is jarring. Our thoughts are with the Riaz, Ali and Olahova families at this time and we offer our deepest and most heart-felt condolences. We are, truly, so sorry for your loss. The Glasgow branch of the ADCU is organising this fundraising effort for the family of Muhammad so that we can give our support to them in whatever way we can. We are also asking our union members to attend the funeral of Muhammad later this week and form a procession of private hire vehicles to take part in a “Driver's Salute”, en-masse, as brothers-in-arms, to pay our final respects to our late friend and colleague. https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/in-memory-of-muhammad-asim-riaz
