JNU student loses right eye in Barak hostel cleaver attack
India
A second-year language JNU student, Saurabh, lost vision in his right eye after being attacked with a meat cleaver at Barak Hostel on November 5.
The alleged attacker, Ajay (a master's student), reportedly targeted Saurabh because he objected to Saurabh's friendship with a woman student.
The scene left many shocked, with traces of blood from the first floor to the ground floor of the hostel.
Attempted murder case filed, Saurabh hospitalized
Saurabh is recovering from serious injuries at AIIMS Trauma Centre.
Police have filed an attempted murder case based on a complaint from the woman involved, but Ajay hasn't been arrested yet, though the investigation is ongoing.
Meanwhile, JNU Proctor's Office has rusticated four students and reminded students that violence won't be tolerated on campus.
