An Australian tourist has reportedly been stabbed to death in Delhi just hours after arriving at the city’s international airport. The BBC News website reports that 59-year-old Dawn Griggs arrived at Delhi from Hong Kong at 1.30am on Wednesday, and left with a taxi driver about 40 minutes later. A 24-year-old driver was arrested after a body was found in woodland near the airport later that day; police reportedly say the woman, who was travelling alone and was planning to stay in the country until 20 April, had died instantly.
