Nagpur: Ajni police saved a young man's life by reaching the spot within three minutes of receiving information on Dial-112 at the police control room. The attacker has been arrested.

The incident took place in Sant Kabir Nagar, under the Ajni police station limits. At 11.15 pm on October 5, the police control room was informed that a man was being attacked with a knife in Sant Kabir Nagar. Ajni police left for the spot immediately and reached it in three minutes. They rescued the complainant, Mukul Dhapode, safely.

Mukul told the police that the accused, Shahbaz Azeem Khan, who lives in the neighbourhood, was demanding his mobile phone and cash at knifepoint.
