An angry driver who ran down a nightclubber on a Halifax street in a revenge attack has been jailed for almost five years.

Azeem Siddique’s victim 29-year-old Jamie Thompson suffered a fracture to the base of his skull and bruising to the brain when he was struck by a black Audi in Silver Street last June.

The early morning incident was captured on graphic CCTV footage which was shown at Bradford Crown Court and Judge Jonathan Rose said it was nothing short of a miracle that Mr Thompson had survived the collision.

The court heard that Siddique and his friends had been driving around in the Audi looking for Mr Thompson and his mates after an earlier altercation in a Halifax nightspot.

The CCTV footage showed Mr Thompson walking across Silver Street shortly before 5am on June 15 and Siddique accelerating in the Audi before swerving into his victim.

 

 

 

 

 

Theses people don't understand our European sense of honour,better people know to deal with them on equal terms.

I have to agree with you on that one.

You never see them fight one on one, any sniff of a confrontation and they all swarm together.

 

This was an equally cowardly and dishonourable retaliation to the earlier altercation.

Pick a ruck with one here on say the rambla or on the raval and watch the fookers come out of the woodwork ;) only thing here they fear is the mossos (Catalan police) who will literally beat them all to death if they felt they had a cause to and could get away with it :laugh:

'European sense of honour' is it now. What a load of bollocks. Cowardly act yes, but not the preserve of the asian community. Plenty cases of 'whites' running 'whites' down..., why don't you post links to them?

 

And it could have been more cowardly still..., they might come on THL to whinge about it.

Whats peoples problem it was only the other week there was folk on here saying how they would " do whatever it took " to come out on top in a fight......car,knife,bat whats the difference.

I suppose it depends on the context.

Maybe if somebody disfigures you or hurts a loved one, the rules may change.

Scuffle in a night club is I think a bit much to go and try and kill or maime somebody.

The evidence says the kid and his mates were running round in the car looking for the victim, then he intentionally swerves into him with the motor, that's pre meditation, not "spur of the moment in a temper, they had time to think about their actions, and anybody knows running into someone with a car could easily end in a fatality.

 

My question is, why isn't he doing 15 for attempted murder?
