00:00It was a terrible experience and I do not want it to be happen to me or anyone else again.
00:06Last Saturday night between midnight and 1 a.m., Mr. Akram alleges a group of young people on
00:12e-scooters followed him around Civic and harassed him. He alleges the group hit the side of his car
00:19and made violent threats towards him, including to burn his vehicle and punch him if he didn't
00:25stop looking at them. They started following me and I just tried to skip from them because
00:32like being an Uber driver, you have to be in the Civic to get the job. It was totally a
00:38trauma to me
00:38and I'm still thinking about that incident. Mr. Akram says he's been driving Uber on and off in
00:45Canberra for the past 10 years and this was the first time he felt unsafe. Police say they are
00:52investigating the matter.
