An angry Mercedes driver jumped on a woman's bonnet, smashed her windscreen and then punched her in the face in a road rage row. Akaash Hussain was sentenced on Thursday for the offence alongside three men for their part in a huge drugs operation.
Hussain appeared alongside Mohammed Haq, Mustafa Zaidi, and Zeeshan Hussain at Manchester Crown Court for four incidents.

Police started investigating after neighbours became suspicious, and stopped Zeeshan, now 21, in Manchester city centre, with the then-teenager dropping something in the river before he was taken into custody. Several phones were seized from the property, along with around £3,000 of cash found in a drawer, along with £2,755 worth of cocaine, £7,100 worth of cannabis, and £405 of ketamine.
Akaash Hussain, 23, who had been released on bail as the drugs conspiracy case was pending against him, also faced charges for the “road rage” incident, which was seemingly unprovoked. The court heard how he was driving a black Mercedes in Salford on November 24, 2018, when he got stuck in traffic, mounting the pavement before pulling in front of a car driven by a young woman.
