LAHORE: A mobile phone video of Prime Minister Imran Khan’s nephew, Hassaan Niazi, surfaced on Friday showing him misbehaving with a commuter on road following a minor accident.

The video showed Mr Niazi exchanging harsh words with a car driver and kicking the car in the presence of two policemen. The cops present there averted any physical clash between the two after Niazi tried to grab the commuter.

A police official said the incident occurred following a minor accident between the cars of Niazi and the other man on Zafar Ali Road. Niazi got out of his car and snatched the keys from the man, holding him responsible for the accident.

This led to a heated argument between the two, the official said, adding that on being alerted, police managed to resolve the matter amicably.

Earlier, another video of Niazi had gone viral during his participation in a lawyers’ rally before attacking the Punjab Institute of Cardiology, inviting widespread criticism. He was later indicted in the case lodged against several lawyers who attacked the hospital.
