The ruling on a taxi driver carrying people he suspects are going to commit a sin

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for a taxi driver to carry people if he strongly suspects that they are going to commit a sin, or that they are carrying intoxicants or something wrong?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible. It is not permissible to assist them in sin. Rather, it is not permissible to remain silent about them. He must report them. He should not remain silent about them, for they are causing corruption in the land. Yes.
