Family Had Their Flesh Burned Off After Daughter's Jilted Lover Poured Acid On Their Faces While They Were Sleeping

A wage labourer, his wife and two young children in India had their flesh burned off when a jilted lover poured acid all over them while they were sleeping.

Mangi Lal, his wife Tulsi and two children - eight-year-old daughter Reena and four-year-old son Manoj - were attacked in their home in the desert state of Rajasthan after the couple's older daughter's boyfriend poured acid on them as revenge for his girlfriend walking out on him.

The couple's daughter had left her live-in partner Prakash Damor's house on August 24, 2016, unannounced, and under the suspicion that Reena was hiding her older sister, he decided to take revenge.
