Bangladesh: Women and children bear scars of most acid attacks

By R.E.A.L. Organization • on March 8, 2009

– Women speaks of husband: “He’d been violent towards me before [their daughter] Bably was born but it was not until day five, when he actually fed her acid I realised something was seriously wrong”
– “Last year 179 people — three-quarters of those women and children — were victims of acid violence in Bangladesh”
– Bangladesh human rights campaigners’ reported concerns?  Not Islamic supremacism, but “human rights campaigners say acid remains too easy to buy”
