FAISALABAD: Setting a new trend contrary to what have been the conventional stories of acid attacks in country, a girl threw acid on her boyfriend in Faisalabad, leaving the boy critically injured who was shifted to hospital shortly after the incident, reports SAMAA Sunday.
On one hand, the incidents of acid throwing have been on rise in Pakistan for some decades while the orthodox attacks, on the other hand, seem to have put on an alarming guise wherein only the girls/women being victimized in such cases has not been traditional anymore – as Nabila of Faisalabad, having flown into rages over some personal disputes, splashed acid on the face of her 21-year boyfriend Mohsin in Marzipura area of Faisalabad.
The ill-fated Mohsin, who was accused of harassing his girlfriend Nabila, was rushed to hospital in critical state, police said.
According to police, Nabila said her boyfriend raped her several times and was also boasting of in front of his friends all what he did with her.
Later on, to a question regarding the recently legislated sentence of acid throwing that is ‘life imprisonment’, Nabila told journalists she was prepared to embrace any kind of punishment for what she did.
Moshin is under treatment at a local hospital and is in state of unconsciousness at this time, hospital sources said.
Area DSP Ashiq Jutt told journalists that accused Nabila in her statement had told police that not only did Mohsin keep raping her but also demanding money and gifts from her.
