Shocking :Indian husband ‘pours acid on sleeping wife because she gave birth to daughters and he wanted boys’ - Risingsuntv

An Indian man poured acid over his wife, on International
Women’s Day, after she gave birth to a baby girl in
Moradabad, in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. The
victim, Farah Biwi, 25, suffered burns injuries to her face,
hands and stomach after her husband Siraj Biwi, 32,
allegedly threw acid over her.

The couple were married for eight years and have two
children together, both girls. Police are searching for the
alleged attacker, and hope to arrest him for voluntarily
causing grievous harm.

Farah is now being treated in hospital after the attack -
said to be motivated by her ‘failure’ to produce a male
child and fulfill a dowry.
