Police on Monday said it registered an FIR against a 29-year-old man from Navi Mumbai for allegedly attacking a 23-year-old woman on suspicion of her character. The man was in a relationship with her.
A police official said the accused and the victim were in a relationship, but of late he started doubting her character and refused to marry her.
He attacked the woman on Sunday afternoon with a knife at her workplace in New Panvel. "The victim suffered injuries on her hands and admitted to a nearby hospital," the official said.
