Man miraculously survives after getting throat slit by Chinese 'Manja'

New Delhi: A motorcyclist escaped death by inches on Friday after he almost lost his life by getting his neck slit by a 'Chinese Manja' The incident took place on Friday at Geeta Colony flyover in the national capital. The 35-year-old was off to work when the hapless incident took place. He was immediately rushed to the hospital, where he was out of danger post medical attention. Last year, taking a serious note of the use of 'Chinese Manja' inflicting fatal injuries on birds and humans as well, the Delhi Government banned the Chinese Manjha in the national capital. Interestingly, Manja is the abrasive string used for kite fighting and is gummed, coloured and coated with powdered glass which makes it dangerous for not only humans but birds too.
