The Story in Brief
Noida police arrested 26-year-old Ankit Verma, a private company executive, for attacking women with scissors in Sector 55. Two women were wounded on the same evening in Sector 58 limits. Verma, a Ghaziabad resident, confessed to targeting women walking alone and attacking them below the waist with scissors before fleeing on his scooter.
Police recovered the scooter and a broken piece of scissors. Additional DCP Manisha Singh said Verma was arrested within a day of the complaints. He told interrogators he acted out of resentment and for entertainment. Police are now checking if he attacked other women.
The Indian Opinion
The accused’s claim of acting “for entertainment” will feed social media fury, but the real story is more ordinary: a resentful man picking easy targets on empty roads. Two victims came forward quickly; police traced him within a day. That speed is good, but the question is whether more women are too scared to report. The number of other victims Verma confessed to will tell us if this was a fluke or a pattern the city must face.
