SASARAM: An unidentified person threw acid on a 30-year-old woman at Bhaganpur under the same police station area in Kaimur district on Sunday night. The incident occurred around 7pm when the woman along with her three children was inside her house.
Police sources said the man wearing a burqa fled from the spot. The woman was referred to Varanasi after preliminary treatment at Bhabhua.
Bhaganpur SHO Rakesh Kumar Roshan said an officer has been sent to Varanasi to record her statement.
The woman received burn injuries on her left eye and face. “An FIR will be lodged on her statement,” he said, adding that the victim has not named any one so far.
Bhabhua DSP Ajay Prasad made a spot inquiry on Monday. Police sources said the accused barged into the victim’s house and threw acid targeting her face from a distance of over 5 feet.
The woman’s husband is a bangle seller and was away to attend a religious function in the village. After hearing her screams, the neighbours assembled there and took the victim to Bhabhua Sadar hospital.
