Minor's driving acts raises eyebrows
Many have raised questions about allowing the minor to drive vehicles though it was for achieving a 'world record' and documenting it. On Sunday, many arrived to witness the skills of Rifah and it is alleged that there was no barricades or safety measures.
However, it is understood that the event was conducted seeking special permission from the RTO.
