Police in India have arrested a 20-year-old youth for allegedly attacking a 23-year-old man with a chopper at Indira Nagar in Kurla West early on Thursday morning. They have launched a manhunt to find his two accomplices.
According to the police, the accused, Mohammed Dawood Khan, chopped off both the arms and one leg of the victim, Mohammed Wasim Khan. The accused reportedly committed the crime after learning that the victim planned to marry his 19-year-old sister. Investigators said that the accused was against the relationship and would frequently engage in fights with the victim over it. A week ago, he had warned the victim to stop meeting his sister. His sister, though, continued to see Wasim.
On Thursday, at around 2 am, Dawood asked his accomplices to call on Wasim who resides at Kasaiwada in Kurla East and ask Wasim to meet him. Wasim, in his complaint, said, “When I reached the spot, Dawood immediately started abusing me and and the next moment, he attacked me with a chopper and then fled from the spot.”
Neighbours who witnessed the crime rushed Wasim to Sion hospital where he is recuperating from the grievous injuries that he has sustained. “The accused has been booked for attempt to murder. The accused claimed that he had warned the victim in the past and since he did not obey him, he committed the offence,” said Kurla police senior inspector Vijay Bagwe.
