“I got a bit frustrated and chased that car and blocked it and while I was standing and arguing with the driver a person stepped out from the back seat holding a gun and pointed it at me. But since the traffic had stopped and people recognised me as Wasim Akram the man than lowered his gun and fired at my car which was very scary,” he narrated the whole details of the incident which is now being investigated by the police.

“I have shared all details with the police and I am confident they will apprehend the culprit. Because road rage can happen anywhere in the world be it England, Australia, USA but taking out a gun is not the way to settle such things,” Wasim said.

“And if this person who fired is so brave than he should come forward and face things,” the former captain added.
