Police in Kampong Cham province arrested a man yesterday for allegedly dousing his ex-wife with acid after she rejected his attempts to rekindle their relationship.

Koh Sotin district deputy police chief Lor Seanghourt told Khmer Times the suspect, Seng Bunnath, 42, poured about a liter of acid on the victim at about 5am yesterday as she walked to the bathroom outside her home.

The 39-year-old victim, Ngorn Sok Leng, was seriously injured on her back, arms and legs and was sent to hospital for treatment.

“After we investigated for almost an entire day, we found and arrested the suspect who doused acid on the victim, who is the former wife of the suspect, but they divorced almost five months ago,” Mr. Seanghourt said.

“The suspect came to meet his ex-wife and asked for her love again, but she rejected him.”...

It seems that the acid used was not so strong and the woman is expected to make a good recovery. She was attacked from behind, so her back got the worst of it.
Ngon Sok Leng, 39, who was burned on her back and left hand, was rushed to the nearby Srei Santhor district referral hospital for treatment, Mr. Channa said.

Ms. Leng remained hospitalized, but was recovering on Thursday evening, Mr. Him said. He said he believed she would make a recovery since the acid was not as corrosive as others used in such attacks, which have declined significantly since the Law on Strong Acid Management was passed in 2011.

“I think the victim will get better soon because this is a kind of battery acid,” Mr. Him said.
