New Delhi: A 20-year-old woman studying at Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) was molested and slapped outside her hostel on Sunday, the police confirmed. The assault comes just days after a student walked into a classroom on campus and hit a girl on the head with an axe repeatedly. She is in hospital in critical condition.
The police said that the man involved in Sunday's attack was a former classmate of the girl he hit. The police identified him as Abhinendra Jain; he was been arrested.
Students said that he also tried to choke the woman he targeted, but the police denied that.
Last week, a student carried an axe and a pistol into a classroom and asked a girl to walk out with him. When she refused, he hit her with the axe and drank poison. He died hours later; she has gone through a series of operations.
