Jalandhar/Melbourne/New Delhi, May30: Cricketer Harbhajan Singh's cousin on Saturday alleged than an Australian taxi driver had killed his son in Melbourne. Mr. Jagjit Singh claimed that his 26 year-old son Upkar Singh Babbal, who went to Australia in 2004, was killed in a racist attack in Melbourne on May 7. Mr. Jagjit Singh said that according to Babbal's friends in Australia, he was killed by an Australian taxi driver who threw his body on the railway tracks. Babbal's body was sent by Indian boys who were known to him, after the Australian police refused to conduct a post-mortem, Mr Jagjit Singh claimed. "We were informed by the Australian police that Babbal had committed suicide," Mr.Jagjit Singh said. But Babbal's body, which was cremated here on May 15, bore only a scar near his eye. Mr Singh pointed out that if he was hit by a train then there should have been more injury marks. In Melbourne, after surviving a murderous attack, a 25-year-old Indian student asked his countrymen not to go to Australia. "My advice to every Indian student who wants to come to Australia is please dont come and that there's is no life here," said Mr. Baljinder Singh.

Bollywood Superstar Amitabh Bachchan said he had rejected an honorary doctorate offered to him by the Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane. Bachchan had earlier accepted the honour, offered for his contribution to the world of entertainment, he said in his blog.
