Background
NZ Herald story here
From a Dominion Post story 16/06/2007
A man has been stabbed in the neck in Wellington in an "unprovoked and callous attack" which left him fighting for his life. Acting Detective Senior Sergeant Warwick McKee said the man, 27, greeted the offender about 2.40am yesterday near the Courtenay Place- Taranaki St intersection. After talking briefly the man pulled a knife and stabbed the victim in the neck. They were not known to each other. "It was a totally unprovoked and callous attack. It's very lucky he did not die," Mr McKee said. "The quick actions of his associates saved his life." Wellington Hospital surgeons operated on him. He was serious but stable yesterday. About 6am police were called to an incident where a man had a weapon at a bar

From a Stuff article 23/11/2007
A Wellington man was today jailed for five and a half years for an unprovoked stabbing in central Wellington . Daniel Mohi earlier pleaded guilty to wounding with intent to commit grievous bodily harm. Wellington District Court was told Mohi was walking along Courtenay Place when the victim walked past and said "g'day bro". Mohi replied "I'm not your bro" and stabbed him in the neck causing serious injuries. Prosecuting lawyer Charlotte Patterson said the victim was unable to defend himself because his hands were full. Judge Bruce Davidson said Mohi had a history of violent behaviour and the brutal attack was unprovoked. "(The sentence) is entirely justified in my mind," he said.
