Watch: Pakistani Journalists Hounding German Official Is Just Hilarious

Uploaded by a Twitter user Umer Tareq, the 2.5 minute video has a group of men complete with cameras and mikes hounding a German Consulate commercial officer, who said his name is Martin. 

 

Throughout the clip, the men are seen trying hard to accuse him of drunk driving, while he clearly states that he doesn’t drink. What makes the video absolutely hilarious is how amidst allegations made in funny, broken English, they also manage to ask him, “You tull? (You drunk?)”.

 

At one point, one of the reporters challenge him to come with them to a hospital to check if he really is ‘sober’. The officer readily agrees, saying he had no problem going to one, because he isn’t drunk. The reporter seems taken aback with his quick retorts, so much so, that for about the next 30 seconds he is absolutely speechless.

 

Though the video is going viral now, the incident reportedly took place in 2011. The German official had apparently slammed his vehicle into a police van parked at a traffic signal in Karachi. He was arrested and then released five hours later.
