From http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/12/02/1070351584367.html?from=storyrhs According to Mr Mustapha's version of events, he picked up Mr Latham in the
city, invited him to share his cab with another passenger to Balmain and
negotiated a tip to take him home after that drop-off.Mr Latham, with alcohol on his breath, had fallen asleep and woke to accuse the
cabbie of taking a long route. Mr Mustapha ordered him out and, when he did not
get his fare, ran after the MP and snatched his satchel. Mr Latham then tackled
him.
Maddog's version doesn't mention alcohol or falling asleep, and didn't
actually mention not paying the fare. But apart from that, the stories are pretty close.
