Berhampur: In a ghastly incident, a student of MKCG Medical College in Berhampur was attacked with acid on the campus allegedly by her husband. The student studying in the third year Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology (DMLT) has sustained burn injuries and been admitted to the hospital.
The incident occurred at around 10.30 am this morning when the girl, Minati Kumari Pradhan, a resident of Barida village under Kabisuryanagar Police Station was on way to attend her class. Suddenly, her husband, who was waiting near the class, allegedly threw acid on her and fled.
In the attack, Minati has suffered burns in her chest, face and her left eye has been severely affected, hospital sources said.
As per her father Bipin Pradhan's allegations, though Minati got married six months back on May 7, the relationship between the couple was not good.
"My daughter told me that her husband is behind the acid attack. Since her marriage, she was tortured and we also lodged a complaint at the Mahila Police station two months back,” said Bipin.
The girl was immediately rushed to the casualty ward of the hospital where reportedly a team of senior doctors are treating her.
Principal of MKCG College further said that, if necessary, she will be shifted to SCB Medical in Cuttack for further treatment.
Meanwhile, latest sources claimed that the student’s condition is stable. However, the details about the severity of injuries can only be ascertained after the team of doctors treating her speak about it, sources said.
