Rohit's attack with a kitchen knife was unprovoked, victim says

Yesterday, Rohit entered her shop on the pretext of taking a bedsheet which her son had asked for, and without any provocation, allegedly hit her with a kitchen knife and fled.

A few minutes later, he allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself using her saree.
