S. Chandra (45), a nurse at the Coimbatore Corporation’s urban health centre on Raja Street, suffered stab injuries when her estranged husband Shanmugam attacked her in an inebriated condition on Saturday.

The police said that Shanmugam went there to arrive at a compromise with Chandra and ask her to return home, but instead stabbed her after she refused.

Hearing her cries for help, the health workers rushed Chandra to the Coimbatore Medical College Hospital. The Variety Hall Road police registered a case and are on the lookout for Shanmugam.

Govt. bus stoned

Unidentified persons, suspected to be members of Adi Tamilar Peravai, on Saturday night stoned a Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation bus near Kinathukadavu.

The police said that after damaging the windshield, the miscreants had thrown handbills which stated that the incident was in retaliation to the murder of Maharajan, son of the leader of Valliyur Union of the outfit in Tirunelveli. The police registered a case.

Police interrogate students

The Thudiyalur police are reportedly interrogating five college students for their alleged involvement in a couple of theft cases.

According to sources, four arts and science students and an engineering college student had entered a house in Kavundampalayam a few days ago and stolen jewellery weighing close to 20 sovereign.

They had also stolen cash from a house in Thudiyalur. The sources said that the police zeroed in on the boys with help from their Saravanampatti counterparts. They added that they were yet to register a case against them but had recovered cash and jewellery.
