Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has underscored the need for fair and lawful proceedings in a road rage altercation in the city involving an Airforce officer and a call centre employee. Emphasizing impartial action, Siddaramaiah directed police to follow legal protocols, regardless of the individual's status.

An FIR has been filed against the 40-year-old Indian Airforce officer, who faces charges of attempted murder, criminal intimidation, and voluntarily causing hurt in response to a counter-complaint by the other party involved. The call centre employee initially faced arrest following a complaint from the officer's wife.

However, CCTV footage has surfaced, providing a different angle to the story. The footage, which has since gone viral, shows the officer assaulting the call centre employee, contradicting the initial claims made by the officer.
