'Oldest man' passes away in India


Habib Miyan
Habib Miyan lived with 32 relatives

An Indian man reported to be the oldest in the world has died in the
western city of Jaipur.

Habib Miyan's pension papers showed his date of birth as 20 May 1879,
but he claimed he was 138.

He shot into limelight five years ago when he managed to complete his
only unfulfilled dream, to visit the Muslim holy place of Mecca in
Saudi Arabia.

A UK-based businessman paid $5,700 for the trip after reading his
story on BBC News Online.
