Late Monday night in Amroha, Uttar Pradesh, terror struck when Head Constable Rahul Kumar was ambushed while stationed at Amrohan Nagar thana. An assailant crept up silently and struck him repeatedly with a razor-sharp iron tool, targeting his shoulder and ear in a savage bid that could have been fatal.
The attack unfolded in seconds, but local police and bystanders sprang into action, subduing the perpetrator on the spot. Kumar, bleeding profusely, was promptly transported to medical care. Physicians noted that while his injuries are grave, he is out of immediate danger and receiving comprehensive treatment.
The arrested man is evasive about his personal details and shows signs of mental distress during interrogation, complicating the probe. SP Amit Anand announced that legal proceedings have commenced, with experts evaluating the suspect’s psychological state. Motive remains elusive as detectives scour for clues.
Adding to the wave of alarming crimes, Farrukhabad witnessed a nephew’s murder at the hands of his tau (paternal uncle). In the Mau Darwaza area, Vaibhav Kanojia succumbed to stab wounds inflicted by Rajesh Kanojia following a heated family row. Rushed to hospital by his father, Vaibhav was pronounced dead. ASP Arun Singh indicated that detailed questioning of the uncle will unravel the full story behind this domestic bloodbath.
