The incident happened on Thursday, September 2, 2021, at 7:30 pm.
Narrating the incident to Kasapa News, the nine-year-old boy said, his mother sent him to buy blade when the unfortunate incident happened on his way home.
According to him, he was tied up and placed in a sack by the gang, but he was saved by the razor in his pocket which he used to cut the sack and eventually managed to escape.
“I was suffocating and really suffering in the sack. It was a terrifying moment but in the midst of my situation, I remembered that my mum’s blade I’d bought for her was in my pocket. So I quickly removed it and used to cut the sack and I escaped without their notice” he narrated.
