Between 2017 and 2021, 1,000 attacks were reported, and there are hundreds of cases that never come to light. The majority are attacks on women by men seeking revenge. One of the victims, Shaheen Malik, has created a NGO to provide help and support.
Europe
is not spared from this scourge: it is estimated that there could be
3,000 acid attacks a year. The victims are almost always young women.
Sheroes Hangout
(the heroine's hangout) is a shelter managed solely by survivors of
acid attacks, a type of attack that occurs almost daily in the country.
In India there are at least three acid attacks a week (370 attacks in
2015, according to the annual crime report of the Indian Ministry of
Home Affairs).
