In a freak accident, a class 9 student accidentally cut his friend's throat with a knife while rehearsing a scene for a play to be enacted during the school's annual drama competition, police said today.

However, the boy survived and was taken to a nearby hospital in south Mumbai after the incident on Friday, where he received six stitches, a senior police official said.

"The incident took place when the students were rehearsing for a drama competition. The victim's parents were also present when it happened," Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone I) Manoj Kumar Sharma said.

"The boy's parents have given us in written that what happened was a mistake and unintentional. Hence, they do not wish to file any complaint," he added.
