CHENNAI: A 38-year-old man was arrested for pouring hot milk on his 16-year-old daughter in Choolaimedu.
Police said the girl was abused for trying to prevent her father from beating up her brother.
On Saturday evening, the girl’s brother Santhosh was playing outside their house when their father Venkatesan, 38, who was drunk, asked him to come inside the house. As he refused, Venkatesan grew furious and started assaulting him.
The girl on seeing this, tried to intervene. This enraged Venkatesan, who in a fit of rage, threw hot milk on his daughter. Hearing her cries, the neighbours came to her rescue and poured water.
She was rushed to the Kilpauk Medical College Hospital and doctors said she has sustained 10% burns.
