"We are raising funds through crowdfunding to meet expenses. People can help us this way," Albert Rajkumar, father of the 24-year-old Angeline Rachel told ANI.
Rachel, a student at York University was stabbed on January 23 in Toronto.

Albert also thanked both central and Tamil Nadu governments for helping the family get visas and tickets for a trip to Canada.
Earlier, the family had requested the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) officials to assist them with the issuance of a visa at the earliest so that they could meet their daughter who was in a critical condition in a hospital in Toronto after getting stabbed on January 23.
The incident was brought to light by a Twitter user, Ronald, who had reached out to the External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar to seek his help in the matter.
Soon after the plight of the family cropped up, Jaishankar directed his ministry officials to arrange a visa for the victim's family. (ANI)
