As per the FIR of the incident, accessed by TNIE, the victim woman in her complaint told the police that the accused forcibly took her to a narrow alley and kept asking her the reason for leaving him.
“He was my friend but recently I had broken up the friendship. Suddenly he took out some knife-like object and started stabbing me.

Hearing the woman’s cries, neighbours reached there and rushed the injured woman to a nearby private clinic. However, as the injuries were serious in nature the doctor opined that she must be referred to some hospital. The injured woman was then taken to Babu Jagjivan Ram Memorial Hospital.
During the investigation, CCTV footage of the crime spot was examined. In one of the footage, also accessed by TNIE, the whole act of the stabbing incident was captured.
“Through technical surveillance, it was found that the accused had absconded to Ambala from Delhi,” the DCP said.
