Islamabad: A video has got viral on Twitter which shows two robbers giving back the items they stole from their victim after they saw him breaking down. They even exchanged a handshake and gave him a hug in a bid to console the man. The entire incident was captured on a CCTV camera and posted on social media.
The strange yet heart-warming incident took place in Pakistan where a popular food-chain’s delivery man was seen getting robbed by two people on a bike.
Just after the man delivered food to the respective house, he came back to his bike to witness two robbers showing up to him and demanding his valuables.
The men reportedly intimidated him with one of them getting off the bike to snatch the victim’s valuables while the other watched him wrestling for it. The delivery man broke down to tears seeing his hard-earned money getting stolen.
Going through a change of heart, the thieves gave back the money to the man. Moreover, they even consoled and hugged him before riding away with a last handshake.

Twitter was filled with emotional comments after the weirdly unsuccessful robbery got viral as the men had the chance to flee but instead gave him back the items they had stolen.
One user wrote, “A small act of kindness has moved us to tears. This tells a lot about the kind of toxic environment we live in. Little things make a big difference. Humanity is what will save us. Act kindly.”
Another user commented saying, “Humanity still alive.”
According to Geo News, Police officials have confirmed that the incident occurred in Karachi. They are yet to identify in which police station’s jurisdiction the crime occurred.
A similar incident had occurred last year when a thief gave back his victim’s money after he checked the balance in her bank account. The internet was flooded with sympathizing posts for the man.
