A three-member gang today allegedly stabbed a man, who was going to appear before district court in connection with his bail norms, in full public view but he escaped with injuries as people intervened.
25-year-old Karthik, against whom many cases have been registered, was going to the court to sign before it, when he was attacked, police said.
However, people intervened and rescued him, even as the trio managed to escape, they said.
Karthik, with injuries on his hand and forehead, got himself admitted to a government hospital but when police reached there, he "gave them the slip", police said.
Since there was no complaint about the attack, police are yet to register a case and "are searching for Karthik to take a complaint on the attack," police said.
