New Delhi: Two men have been arrested for throwing acid on a woman doctor in a crowded neighbourhood in West Delhi earlier this week. Police sources said they believe another doctor, who is likely to be arrested soon, was the mastermind of the horrific attack which left the woman with serious burns on her face and a damaged right eye.
CCTV footage from the busy market in Rajouri Garden on Tuesday shows two men on a motorcycle with their faces covered by their hoodies pulling up next to the victim, whose face was also wrapped with a scarf, and brazenly flinging acid at her as she rode her scooter. The 30-year-old woman was on her way to work at a hospital nearby.
The woman reportedly screamed for help, but passers-by walked and cycled past.
Three years ago, a doctor she studied with allegedly fell in love with her and because she did not reciprocate, he allegedly hired a gang to attack the woman.
