A man attempted to kill a woman by stabbing her with a screwdriver at her house in Chatrinaka reportedly after she refused to marry him.
According to the police, Manikantha (30), runs a food court at Abid Road and was friends with the woman who is a beautician and resident of Chatrinaka. The woman was earlier married to one Arshad, and the
couple had approached the court and filed a petition for divorce. The case is in the court.
Meanwhile, Manikantha, who is also a distant relative of the woman, met her and both of them got into friendship. Manikantha insisted they get married soon and was pestering her while she told him that they can get married only after the court case is finalized.
