Brutally stabbed Tuschen businessman fears assailant will escape justice

Some of the wounds Fazaal Ally is left to deal with after being viciously attacked Sunday last at a wedding.

A Tuschen businessman who was brutally stabbed on Sunday last at a wedding reception, risked his health chasing and capturing his assailant minutes after the ordeal, only to have the man leave the village after being placed on $10,000 station bail.

Three hours after Fazaal Ally, 40, visited a wedding reception in the village, a man walked up to him under a tent and asserted he knew him. Ally said he responded in the negative and using expletives, told the man, who had been consuming alcohol, to move away from him; the man moved.

Ally explained that he was returning to his car some 20 minutes later, after it had stopped raining, when the man, “…come from the back and lash me with a bottle in me head.” Ally said the bottle broke on his head. “I spin round after I get lash,” he recounted, and “… the man start pull jook in me…”

Ally sustained a gaping wound to the left side of his neck and the right corner of his mouth, in addition to the laceration in his head.
