A woman along with her son suffered burn injuries when her husband threw acid on her when she refused to return to him.  The 24-year-old woman had sought a divorce from her husband as she was fed up with his addiction to alcohol and drugs. The woman and her 12-year-old son are currently undergoing treatment at Kasturba Hospital.

The shocking incident occurred in Behrampada, Bandra East, on Monday evening. The woman was sitting with her son near the entrance when the accused arrived and pleaded with her not to return. When she refused, the enraged husband threw acid on her, resulting in injuries to her back, abdomen, and shoulder. The acid also splashed on the boy`s back, causing him injuries as well.
