20-year-old woman's ex-husband, live-in partner throw acid at her in Mumbai's Nalasopara

A spine-chilling incident has come to light from Haryana’s Sonipat, where a woman allegedly threw acid at a man on Wednesday. The reports state the woman wanted to marry him, but the victim and his family were against the marriage. In a fit of rage, the woman threw a can full of acid at him when he went to a shop in the Mayur Vihar colony to buy milk.

The man suffered serious burns and is currently admitted to the ICU at a private hospital. The doctors state the condition of the victim is critical. The victim’s aunt has lodged a case against the woman. The police are investigating the matter.

The victim has been identified as Shyam Singh of Bahadurgarh, Jhajjar district. The 25-year-old used to live with his aunt after his parents died a few years ago.

While filing a complaint, the victim’s aunt said Shyam currently works in a company that is close to the accused woman’s village. His aunt alleged that the accused, who used to live in Gohana, used to call him regularly.

His aunt stated that later, the accused came to her house with her mother with a proposal to marry her nephew. But a few days later, the victim’s family got to know about her first marriage and that she was living separately from her husband. Shyam then refused to marry her, but the woman didn’t stop calling him.

Shyam and his aunt informed the members of her family. Following this, her family members asked him to block their daughter’s number, thinking she might stop talking. The accused even threatened Shyam to marry her, otherwise, she wouldn’t let him get married to any other girl.

The victim’s aunt further said she asked Shyam to stay at home after she got to know about the accused’s warning. But on Wednesday morning, Shyam went out for some work when he saw her inquiring about him by showing photos to the shopkeepers. Shyam then returned home.

Later in the evening, Shyam went to buy milk from Mayur Vihar’s street number 24 shop when suddenly the accused brought a five-liter can and threw acid at him. His aunt said when they got word about the incident, they immediately took Shyam to the nearby hospital. Shyam suffered burns on his arms, legs, mouth, neck, and back due to the acid attack.

Virendra Rao, DSP City, said the police are investigating the matter and are on the lookout to nab the woman. He also said that strict action would be taken against the woman.

PM Narendra Modi on Thursday launched a scathing attack on the Congress party after more than 600 lawyers and some bar associations across the country wrote to the Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, expressing concerns over attempts to undermine the judiciary’s integrity using political and professional pressure.

Taking to social media platform X, PM Modi wrote that to browbeat and bully others is vintage Congress culture. He recalled that five decades ago, the party itself had called for a committed judiciary, adding that they shamelessly want commitment from others for their selfish interests, but desist from any commitment towards the nation. He concluded that no wonder, 140 crore Indians are rejecting them.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s comments followed after lawyers, including Harish Salve and Bar Council chairperson Manan Kumar Mishra, wrote to CJI DY Chandrachud, alleging that a vested interest group is trying to put pressure on the judiciary and defame courts, particularly in cases of corruption involving politicians.

The lawyers said the tactics used by the vested interest group are damaging the courts and threatening democratic fabric. They stated that Chief Justice Chandrachud’s leadership is crucial in these tough times and the Supreme Court should stand strong, adding it is not the time to maintain dignified silence.

Without naming, the letter also targeted a section of lawyers and alleged they defend politicians by day and then try to influence judges through the media at night. Furthermore, they claimed that some elements are trying to influence who the judges are in their cases and spread lies on social media to put pressure on the judges to decide in a particular way.

In addition, the All Manipur Bar Association had also written to CJI DY Chandrachud highlighting the need to speak out against underhanded attacks on the judiciary on Wednesday. In its letter, the bar association said that it was extremely concerned about recent trends where vested interest groups were trying to defame the courts with frivolous logic and stale political agendas.

Nonetheless, data from the other 4 digital devices seized during search at Arvind Kejriwal’s premises on March 21 are yet to be extracted as the arrestee has sought time to provide password/login credentials after consulting with his lawyers.

In its fresh remand plea, the investigation agency said that during Arvind Kejriwal’s custodial interrogation, his statements were recorded on five days and that he was giving evasive replies. It further said the statements of three other persons have also been recorded during the remand.

CM Kejriwal made a submission in front of the court on Thursday, where he said that in the 31,000 page document prepared by the ED, there is no concrete proof or allegations against him on the basis of which he has been arrested.

Meanwhile, Arvind Kejriwal’s wife Sunita Kejriwal said on March 28 that the AAP national convener is not keeping well and is being harassed a lot while in ED custody over the past week. She asserted that the Chief Minister is being harassed a lot and his sugar levels are fluctuating.

CM Arvind Kejriwal was arrested by the ED on March 21 and was sent to 7-days of custody. His arrest has triggered protests in the national capital and the nearby northern state of Punjab, which is also governed by AAP, over the last few days.
