Food Delivery Rider Forgives Angry Boomer Uncle for Attacking Him in Viral Road Rage Incident in Karachi

The food delivery rider who was assaulted during a viral road rage incident in Karachi’s Defense Housing Authority (DHA) has forgiven the accused after both parties reached an out-of-court settlement.

According to the DIG South Media Cell, the matter was resolved at Darakhshan Police Station after the rider agreed not to pursue legal action.

Police said the accused compensated the rider for the damage caused to his motorcycle as well as other financial losses. Following the payment, the rider declined to register an FIR and chose to settle the matter amicably.

During the proceedings, the accused’s father told police that his son, Haseeb, had been under stress at the time of the incident and had a tendency to lose his temper, particularly when he believed motorcyclists were driving recklessly.

He assured police that he would counsel his son to remain calm and avoid similar confrontations in the future.

The incident gained widespread attention after a video circulated on social media showing the accused allegedly attacking the rider with a hockey stick following a minor collision between a car and a motorcycle in DHA.

Police said they traced the suspect using his vehicle’s registration number and also contacted the food delivery company to identify the rider. The accused’s father later appeared at the police station, after which both parties agreed to resolve the dispute through mutual consent.
