Saudi female student knifed in New Jersey – Arab News

Editor November 30, 2015

A female Saudi student of medicine was stabbed by an unidentified man in a street at Hackensack, New Jersey, recently, triggering a massive hunt for the culprit and his accomplice.
Fortunately, none of her internal organs were harmed due to the stabbing and she was discharged after treatment in a hospital, a website reported on Sunday, quoting the student.
The woman said she is the fourth year student of the medical college of Colombia University in Hackensack and is unmarried. She is on a scholarship program of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques for foreign studies.
According to the student, when she went out for a walk on Thursday evening, two men in a small black car followed her. One of them said in Arabic accent “perhaps you know that with whom you are playing” and stabbed her. His accomplice was speaking good English and both of them fled the scene soon after attacking her.
“However, it does not appear to be a hate crime because the attackers neither touched my veil nor passed any racist comment, as was reported by a section of the media,” she said.
Passersby soon gathered around her and notified the police and an ambulance, she said. “I was then moved to Hackensack Hospital for treatment and discharged after my condition improved.”
She said the police came to the hospital and recorded her statement and promised that the culprits would be brought to justice.
The Saudi Consulate in New York and the Saudi cultural attaché’s office in Washington also clarified in a statement that the student was attacked but her veil was not touched by the culprits.(Arab News)
