JEDDAH — A loyal and hardworking Pakistani attendant at a fuel station in the Eastern Province lost his life for an unpaid bill worth SR65 only.

According to reports, the attendant died while chasing some fleeing youths who refused to pay after getting the gas filled in their vehicle.

The deceased, 26-year old Mohammed Shamrez, hailed from Gujarat in Pakistan. He worked as an attendant at a fuel station in Abqaiq governorate in the Eastern Province. After dispensing fuel worth SR65, Shamrez asked for the money from the motorists, according to sources.

The motorist, a 17-year old Saudi, and his friends including a GCC national, refused to pay the money after filling their tank and the worker climbed the backside of car, according to police spokesperson in the Eastern Province, Col. Ziad Al-Riqati.

During the tussle, the motorist started his car and the worker fell and sustained serious injuries, the spokesman added.

The driver and his friends in the vehicle sped away. However, police were able to arrest them and referred them to authorities concerned, police said.

Police said that all accused except one have been referred to the public prosecution and one who is 17-year minor was sent to juvenile home.

Shamrez succumbed to his injuries on Thursday, said Mohammed Niaz Munishi, prominent Pakistani community volunteer in the Eastern Province who is helping the bereaved family.

The injured worker suffered serious injuries in his head and was immediately rushed to a hospital in Dammam where he was declared brain-dead after failing to respond to treatment.

The family of Shamrez came forward to donate his organs to give someone a new lease of life in the Kingdom, said Munshi.

The dead body of the worker is being kept at a hospital in Dammam and officials are completing legal formalities, according to Munshi.

Most gas station attendants, especially those in the countryside, go through the trauma and stress each day with various types of behavior of some customers.

Excessive wealth has made them lose their minds. But they respect westerners massively but south asians...well....!

I think all oil rich states in gcc. Qataris, kuwaitis...etc etc i think all of them have their youth ruined.

Also whatelse is the reason they had to ask pakistan or others to fight wars for them? Just think urself? Luxuries have spoiled their youths.

That saif ul arab treats us pakistanis like a servent on our own forum.

Yes, I have seen that.

And not only Pakistanis but all South Asians.

His lengthy posts have one function only - to insult other cultures and promote Saudia.

Also, he thinks that Arab members from non-GCC countries ( Egyptians, Algerians etc ) are automatically his friends even though they have huge political differences.

And as you said, he won't ever criticize the Westerners.

They worship westerners like Gods Now a days.

They get used by Western governments but are not even aware of that.

What is the legal age to get a driver's license there?

If he can drive then he is not a juvenile ......... and I had heard petrol / gas / diesel is cheaper in Kingdom and they still behave like this?

Our elders recall the times when pilgrims from Pakistan used to make donations to Saudis before they discovered Oil. How times change.........and how it will change again.

It is common in GCC.. they don't even pay taxi bills and runaway upon reaching their destinations.. not because they don't have money, but for fun.. They don't know that taxi drivers have to pay the exact amount to the company at the end of the day for all the trips.. and a 50 AED bill costs them and their families back in Pakistan for about 1500 Pakistani rupees..

As far I know, all the petrol stations are fully equipped with CCTV cameras, so there is no need to become extra smart staff, just do the job as per the contract...


Shameless people..

Do Saudis or other GCC'ers work as taxi drivers??

Shameless indeed. Not even acknowledging that a human has died because some teens wanted to have some fun.
