Jammu, May 12: A man was attacked with acid allegedly by a neighbor at Jain Bazar here on Saturday night.
Family members of Sahil Verma alleged that the attack was fueled by a longstanding feud between the two families.
According to Sahil’s family, the assailant targeted Sahil while he was out to fetch medicine for his ailing mother late at night.
Sahil’s family said that they received a call informing them about Sahil’s hospitalization.
“Thankfully, Sahil was wearing a helmet at the time, which prevented severe facial injuries, but his neck and other parts of his body were burnt in the attack,” claimed his family.
SP City North, Shivam Sidharath, stated that the investigation is ongoing, but CCTV footage has not yielded conclusive evidence yet. |
