Dubai // Police have arrested the "prime suspect" in the stabbing of a 25-year-old Iranian medical student in an underground car park. Anooshka Khudabakhshi was attacked in the basement of her building on April 8 by a man who stabbed her twice in the back. She was admitted to Rashid hospital with serious injuries.
Police arrested and questioned a number of Asian men who matched a description given by Ms Khudabakhshi, and she identified one of them as her attacker at the Bur Dubai police station. "The attacker was unmasked so I can identify him," she said. A police CID source added: "One of the suspects caught recently appears to be the prime suspect in the case." Ms Khudabakhshi now plans to move back to Iran as a result of the attack.
"I don't feel safe here any more," she said. "I'll return to take my exams in a few months but for now I'm leaving for Iran." rabubaker@thenational.ae pmenon@thenational.ae

What is graphene?
Graphene is extracted from graphite and is made up of pure carbon.
It is 200 times more resistant than steel and five times lighter than aluminum.
It conducts electricity better than any other material at room temperature.
It is thought that graphene could boost the useful life of batteries by 10 per cent.
Graphene can also detect cancer cells in the early stages of the disease.
The material was first discovered when Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov were 'playing' with graphite at the University of Manchester in 2004.
