Two youths stabbed in public park at Dera Bassi

Unidentified youths allegedly stabbed two teenagers, leaving them with serious injured at a public park on Gulabgarh road in Dera Bassi.

The victims, Navjot, 17, and Harsh, 16, were rushed to Dera Bassi Civil Hospital from where they were referred to GMCH-32 after their condition deteriorated.

The two were sitting in the park when unidentified youths approached them and attacked them with sharp-edged weapons before fleeing the spot. They left behind the weapons at the spot.

Locals, meanwhile, alleged that the same group has attacked others in the area previously as well. “We have informed the police about them to no avail. A few days ago, a father-son duo was seriously injured in a deadly attack. The gruesome attack on two youths shows that these anti-social elements have no fear of police,” they said.
