A cab driver was stabbed to death near Palm Residency, Mullanpur barrier, around 9 pm today. He has been identified as Dharam Pal (around 35 years old), a resident of Zirakpur.

The cab, with a Mohali registration plate, had picked up the passengers from Sector 43 to Mullanpur. Passers-by said the victim, a native of Rajasthan, was stabbed in the throat and left in a secluded area. “The police and the ambulance did not arrive at the spot for 25 minutes after a call about the incident was made,” they complained.
