A jilted girlfriend suffered serious burn injuries after carrying out a botched acid attack on her former lover, police say.
Ung Limey, 21, from Phnom Penh, Cambodia, tried to pour acid on her boyfriend while riding on the back of his motorcycle. He was injured, but most of the acid was blown back onto her own face
To make matters worse, her ex, Leng Socheata, 23, crashed the bike shortly afterwards as a result of the pain from the burns, causing further injury to the pair.
Ung, the acid pourer, fled the scene before police arrived, and police believe she has been treated for her burns at a private hospital. Leng's family told police it was an act of revenge after they had convinced him to break off the relationship after discovering she had a history of stealing and drug related offences.
Although she's currently missing, local media has been posting photos of Ung with a bandaged face that came out on social media.
The police said: 'We have visited all of the state hospitals and there was no sign of her, and we suspect that means that she has been treated in a private hospital.'
