No the child is not Ruttie or is she? Actually I thought so ages ago because a book of Mr Jinnah's photographs edited by Mr Rafiq Akhtar gave the identity of the driver as Sir Dinshaw Petit. Shagufta Yasmeen who wrote the first biography of Ruttie Jinnah told me it was not Ruttie. And now its been confirmed. Jinnah's friend here is Pestonjee H J Rustomjee and the child is Homi Rustomjee.
