Abohar, October 7
Days after a motorcyclist attacked two women and tried to snatch their mobile phones, a miscreant on Thursday entered the clinic of a homoeopathy doctor on Circular Road and attacked Dr Upasana Kawatra with a sharp weapon in a bid to rob her around 10 am.
Dr Kawatra, who suffered injuries in the attack, was taken to the Sub-Divisional Civil Hospital. Preliminary probe indicated a 25-year-old person entered the clinic on the pretext of showing his test report and placed his bag inside the doctor’s cabin.
Sensing trouble, the doctor pulled her chair a little at which the miscreant allegedly took out a sharp weapon from his bag and attacked her.
The doctor tried to grab hold of the attacker, but he fled the spot, leaving her wounded. As the doctor raised the alarm, some passersby came to her aid and took her to the hospital.
Baljit Singh, incharge, City-1 police station, said the statement of the injured doctor had been recorded and CCTV footage was being analysed.
