Vadodara: The mystery behind two employees found wounded at a private firm at Padra over a week ago turned out to be a case of one-sided love.
The police have booked Ashwin Parmar (22) for attempting to murder his 29-year-old colleague Suvarna Dorik.
According to the police, Ashwin had been proposing to Suvarna for the past two-and-half months.
She is married and has a two-year-old child but that didn’t deter Ashwin from harassing her.
They both work in the quality control department of BDR Lifesciences Pvt Ltd.
While Ashwin works as a helper, she is an officer.
“Ashwin wanted to have a relationship with Suvarna but she had rejected his advances.
Ashwin used to call her on phone too but she kept ignoring his harassment,” said M A Karmur, Padra police inspector.
On June 14, Ashwin again approached Suvarna when she was about to finish her shift and leave the office.
He cornered her and again proposed for marriage.
“When she rejected his proposal, he got angry and slit his own throat with a paper cutter.
Ashwin then slit Suvarna’s throat before injuring himself again.
She panicked and ran out of the room where the other staff members spotted her,” Karmur added.
The duo was rushed to a hospital in Padra in serious condition.
Their condition improved after a couple of days but both were not able to talk.
The cops took a statement of the Suvarna late on Monday night wherein she narrated the entire incident.
“We will arrest Ashwin as soon as he is discharged from the hospital.
Investigations reveal that the company staffers were not aware of the woman’s ordeal,” Karmur said.
