A 19-year-old girl suffered bleeding injuries after her classmate allegedly stabbed her for spurning his love proposal and he later attempted suicide in Nizamabad district of Telangana, police said.
Accused S Reddy, attacked the girl with a knife, a second-year degree student at a private college, on the college premises in Kamareddy town of Nizamabad this afternoon, reportedly after an argument, they said.
Reddy, a native of Medak district had been making love proposals to the girl for the past six months, which she had been rejecting. Around 10 days ago, she again turned down his proposal, Kamareddy SHO D Krishna told PTI.
