The chairman of Cambridge school, Abdul Jabbar (39), was grievously injured when a young man from Bidar old city attacked him in his house on Sunday.
On Sunday afternoon, Adam Hassim (37), a salesman for a fast-moving consumer goods company, went to Jabbar’s house in the pretext of wishing him for Eid Ul Fitr. He greeted him and was about to leave when he stabbed him in the neck with a knife.
Family members and neighbours rushed to the help of the victim and shifted him to the district hospital. He was later shifted to a private hospital in Hyderabad. Doctors said his condition was serious, but stable.
Police arrested the accused Adam Hassim from Siddhi Taleem in the old city. A case has been registered in the town police station. The motive behind the attack is not clear, though the police suspect a family feud to be among the reasons.
