The woman, who was attacked while she was on duty in a bank in nearby Nanmanda in Balusserry, was rushed to a nearby hospital. She is said to be out of danger.

Police said the accused Biju, native of Nanmanda, has been taken into custody.

The victim is an employee of a cooperative bank in Nanmanda and the incident took place around noon today.

His ex-wife was on leave today and the victim occupied her seat which resulted in the mistaken identity, police sources said.
