Coimbatore city police has booked a 27-year-old woman for attacking her former boyfriend with acid at an apartment in Peelamedu on Friday. According to the woman, she did so as the victim had allegedly cheated her of money. However, as per police, this seems to be a case of relationship gone sour.
Case:
R Rakesh, 30, hails from Kodipuram in Thiruvananthapuram district of Kerala. A police officer told TOI,
Rakesh, who was working at a spa in Dubai, was in a live-in relationship with his colleague P Jayanthi, 27, of Thiruvalluvar Street at Meenambakkam in Kancheepuram. She had separated from her husband. Rakesh returned to Kerala in July to attend his sister’s marriage and Jayanthi returned to Chennai.
Rakesh married another woman in Kerala three months ago. He sent a WhatsApp message to Jayanthi on Thursday and asked her to visit an apartment in Peelamedu on Friday. They met at the apartment around 11.30am and Jayanthi asked him to marry her. When Rakesh refused, an argument broke out between them and Jayanthi took a bottle of acid from her bag and poured it on his face.
He sustained burn injuries to the cornea of his left eye. She also stabbed him on his right-hand thumb with a knife and consumed poison.
The apartment watchman rushed the duo to the Coimbatore Medical College and Hospital (CMCH).
Police Action
Based on Rakesh’s complaint, the Peelamedu police registered a case against Jayanthi under Section 323, 324 and 326 (A) of the Indian Penal Code. Meanwhile, Jayanthi lodged a complaint saying that Rakesh had borrowed Rs 18 lakh from her. Police have registered a cheating case against Rakesh.
