A man of Indian origin has been charged with attempting to murder two children and a woman after allegedly stabbing them in London, according to The Independent on Monday.

Kulvinder Ram, aged 48, is accused of stabbing a two-year-old boy, an eight-year-old girl, and a 30-year-old woman. Police responded to a call on Friday evening at a residential street in Dagenham, where they found the victims, all of whom are now hospitalized in stable condition.

“This is a deeply disturbing incident, and I want to express gratitude to local residents for their support and patience as we handle the situation,” stated Detective Superintendent Lewis Basford.

He added, “The crime scene will be secured for some time while our officers conduct essential investigations, and you’ll notice an increased police presence in the area over the coming days. If you have any concerns or information that could help, please speak to an officer or call police on 101.”

Ram is scheduled to appear in court later in the day.
