Indian gangrape victim attacked with acid by same men

    An Indian gangrape victim has been allegedly targeted in an acid attack by the same men, who were released on bail.

    The woman accuses two men who raped her in Fatehgarh city, in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, of throwing acid at her with another unidentified accomplice.

    Reports say she was attacked when returning from a local court after she appealed against the decision to let the men out on bail.

    It is believed she suffered burns on her face and body, and is being treated at a local hospital.

    A manhunt has been launched to apprehend the suspects.
