A teenager Afghan girl has reportedly stabbed a woman hailing from Uezbkistan in Delhi, the capital city of India, allegedly due to an altercation sparked over an illicit relationship.
According to the local media reports, the incident took place in Southeast Delhi involving a 15-year-old girl and two of her Afghan friends.
The victim identified as Zarina is said to be in her 30s and was stabbed in her stomach in Delhi’s Lajpat Nagar area, according to The Asian Newspaper.
“The dispute allegedly originated over Zarina informing her friend Roshini about her husband’s illicit affair with the minor,” a senior police official said.
Teh official further added that “The 15-year-old got to know about Zarina’s involvement and roped in two of her friends and attacked Zarina.”
When the 15-year-old was escaping in a car with her accomplices, a passerby saw them and thought that the girl had been kidnapped by the boys, the police said.
The official also added that the passerby made a PCR call and police intercepted the vehicle on Lala Lajpat Rai Marg, said the official.
It was later found during interrogation and through a series of calls that they were involved in a case of stabbing and the girl had not been kidnapped, he added.
Zarina is currently admitted to AIIMS and is out of danger.
