Lahore High Court on Thursday directed Multan district and sessions judge to submit a report, with his comments, on an acid attack.
The LHC passed the orders on a newspaper report that Muhammad Naveed Ahmed, 24, had been attacked by Dr Naheed Chaudhry, 28, who ran a private clinic in Chak 114/15-L.
The report stated that he first met her when he visited her clinic for treatment of skin allergy. The news item said Ahmed’s parents had arranged his marriage with his cousin.
One day she called Ahmed to her clinic. When he entered, she threw acid at his face. He managed to save his body, but his face was badly burnt.
The doctor fled from the scene. Ahmed was taken to a private clinic from where he was referred to the Mian Channu Tehsil Headquarters Hospital, where doctors treating he might lose vision in one eye.
A case has been registered against the doctor who was arrested a few hours later. Police said she had confessed to the crime.

It had to happen...women have learnt to do it too!!
@JS: Please first tell us where do you live. I mean which country?
@Jibran:
Are you Indian? Because you seem to have serious comprehension problems. The article clearly says she confessed not alleged anymore
Can someone please explain to me as to why; 1. Acid is so readily available all over pakistan? 2. How is acid thrown? in liquid form it would create a mess and possibly burn the attacker too. 3. Are we the world leader in Acid Attacks?
This needs proofreading. Also, the organization of ideas is very haphazard, and difficult to follow.
@Jibran: Alleged? Here it says she confessed..
Since the victim is male and the alleged culprit is a female, the "justice" will be swift and without mercy.
This is not the first, Woman's revenge can be as intense as that, just that our men considers women attacks as taboo and they dont get reported. My 2 cents, you can disagree.
wow,this is a first
