MOGA – Kulwant Kaur and her three daughters were attacked with acid while they were sleeping on the courtyard of their house at Saleena village on Monday. The victims were rushed to a private hospital by their neighbours. They were shifted to the district hospital here this afternoon.
Kulwant Kaur, in her statement to the police, said the husband of her elder daughter Jaspreet could be behind the attack. She said Jaspreet was married to Jagtar Singh of Mahesri village five years back.
The couple had strained ties. “Five days back, Jaspreet fell ill and came to me. She was hospitalised for two days. Jaspreet’s husband asked her to return home but Jaspreet wanted to stay with me for a few more days. This may have provoked him to attack us,” said a distressed Kulwant Kaur.
Surjit Singh Grewal, SSP, said he had asked the SHO concerned to record the statements of the victims and register a case.
