CHENNAI: In a fight over water, Tamil Nadu assembly speaker Dhanapal's car driver attacked a woman and her husband with a knife at their apartment in Anakaputhur on Thursday.
Police said the driver, Ayyappan Adhimoola Krishnan, 36, and the victim, Mohan, 32, lived in the same residential complex of six houses. As the taps went dry on Thursday night, Mohan went to switch on the motor, which was fitted next to Krishnan's house.
Krishnan came out and objected to Mohan "wasting" water in the night. "They got into a fight," said an investigating officer. "Mohan's wife Subashini, 28, joined the quarrel. Krishnan rushed into his house and returned with a knife. He attacked Subashini with the knife, leaving her with an injury on her face."
