Indore:
A 36-year-old married woman on Tuesday suffered severe burn injuries when a man, who apparently wanted to take revenge, splashed acid at her, police said.
The acid attack took place when the victim, Neha Titlani, was working at her home in Dwarikapuri in Indore. She received 35 per cent burns on her face, eyes and some other parts of the body, local police officer Pawan Mishra said.
Titlani was admitted to a private hospital where her condition was said to be serious, he said.
The attacker, identified only as Ameen - who used to work at a book binding shop - fled from the scene, they said.
In July, Ameen was sent to jail on the basis of an eve-teasing complaint lodged by the woman. He had come out of prison recently, police said.
A case under IPC Section 307 (attempt to murder) has been registered and police were looking out for the attacker.
