A woman was stabbed by a tailor, identified as Brijesh, leaving her neck and face injured for opposing mistreatment with her sister. The victim reported that the police had arrested three accused after the incident but later granted them bail.

New Delhi: A 30-year-old woman was stabbed by a tailor with a scissor which left her injured after a verbal spat broke out between the two in outer Delhi’s Nangloi area.

The incident took place on Monday after the tailor reportedly made objectionable remarks against the victim’s sister, the police said.

The victim alleged that the police had arrested three accused after the incident but later granted them bail.

In the Nangloi area, the woman was attacked with scissors leaving her neck and face injured for opposing mistreatment with sister. The accused escaped from the spot with two other brothers after which the information of the incident was given to the police.

“The woman sustained injuries on her face. She was discharged from hospital after treatment the same day,” a senior police officer said.

According to the police, the woman along with her two sisters had gone to the tailor’s house to confront him over the comments he made against one of the sisters. But the verbal confrontation soon turned ugly as the tailor, identified as Brijesh, lost his cool and stabbed the woman on her face with a scissor.
