A man who ran over a traffic police official after violating a traffic signal in Karachi’s DHA area has been arrested, Express News reported.
According to details, the incident occurred on May 20 near the Saudi Embassy. Traffic Constable Sadaqat signalled a vehicle to stop after it ran a red light. Instead of complying, the driver accelerated.
When the constable stepped in front of the vehicle, the driver did not stop and ran over him. The impact caused Constable Sadaqat to be thrown onto the bonnet of the car. Holding onto the bonnet, he managed to stay on the vehicle as the driver attempted to flee.
Despite this, the driver continued to evade arrest, prompting another policeman on a motorcycle to record the incident on video.
