Unable to handle the reaction of the lover, this woman, Lidia Fisiba, who works as a nurse in a private hospital carried an acid bottle and threw it on Jayakumar‘s face while he was going to a temple in Vijaynagar on Monday evening.
Lidia wore a helmet while throwing the acid and even pasted black papers on her scooter so that nobody recognises her. After throwing the acid she ran and Jayakumar and his brother chased her, but when they tried to remove her helmet she took out the scalpel and attacked Jayakumar’s face.
The couple were in a relationship for eight years and after that, they parted ways. While Jayakumar avoided talking to her, the girl insisted on getting married to him.
Jayakumar is being treated in KC General Hospital and has suffered burn injuries, but is out of danger. Lidia has been arrested and booked for wrongful restraint and attempt to murder.
