A victim of acid attack in Cambodia
ShortNews.com
In Cambodia, acid attacks have been decreasing in the last couple of years, but still those attacking people with acid have gone unpunished. Rights groups are putting pressure on the government to take greater action against the acid attackers.
Last week, two, teenage sisters were riding their motorbike to the market when two men pulled up next to them and poured acid all over the girls' heads, faces and bodies. They were taken to the hospital and treated for sever burns.
One of the most notorious cases is that of Tat Marina, a karaoke star who was beaten unconscious and doused in a liter of acid, by the wife of her lover, a senior government official. Tat was 16 at the time. No one has ever been charged.
