Normally the cleaner would come back with a gang. Google is full of such past stories. Stopping on the road in Delhi is dangerous, whether in an airport taxi or not. The cops knew that. Lucky.

(my fault, I shoudnt have given him an imported one) off we went into the foggy morning. gave him 100 bucks tip for the extra bags. next morning he was waiting for us outside the hotel. he showed us some of the best food places delhi has to offer. always look for that taxi driver ever since. His names Prem but u can call him Petrolnai, he wont mind. hang on. we arrived around midnight.
