Bhaniarawala stabbed

Ambala, September 24
The controversial religious leader Baba Piara Singh Bhaniarawala was attacked by an assailant outside a court here today.

The attacker, disguised as a follower, sought blessings of the baba who was waiting in a jeep for a case to be called up.

As Bhaniarawala blessed him, the man took out a knife and stabbed him in the neck and back.

Bhaniarawala, who is accused of sacrilege, had come to appear in a case in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate Surya Partap Singh.

The baba, who was first taken to the local Civil Hospital, was later referred to the PGI, Chandigarh.

The alleged assailant was nabbed by the police on the spot. — PTI
