Kumari was reportedly walking back home when two men on a bike ambushed her to snatch her phone.

However, the 15-year-old, instead of caving in, put up a fierce fistfight, pulled the pillion rider from the bike and engaged with him until people from around came to her rescue and helped get him arrested.

In her fight, the 15-year-old Kumari concedes multiple strikes and consequently serious injury from a sharp object from her assailant but to his frustration, the girl still persisted and saw to it that he faces the music.

She was later admitted to a private hospital for the treatment of her injuries and the attacker, identified as Avinash Kumar (22) alias Ashu, a resident of Begumpura, Basti Danishmanda, was arrested.

Avinash with his associate who fled the scene as the former was cornered, has also been registered in a case under Sections 389 B and 307 (attempt to murder) of Indian Penal Code.
