The woman, brutally attacked by an armed man at an unguarded ATM kiosk here, is recovering at a hospital on Wednesday after being paralysed on her right side, even as the police intensified their hunt for the assailant whose gory act caught on CCTV footage evoked widespread revulsion.

The 38-year-old bank official who was attacked with a machete was recovering from a ‘long surgery’ and she was able to speak, Dr NK Venkataramana, who performed the operation at the BGS Global Hospital, told reporters.

He said her skull was fractured and a small piece of bone had gone into the brain, causing a ‘penetrating injury’ and added that she had been paralysed on her right side.
