Social media is a breeding ground for online drama that can often impact day to day life. In one disturbing report, a 15-year-old girl in the Indian state of Bihar suffered from burns to her face after a former male friend allegedly poured boiling water on her.

According to reports, the reasoning for the act was that the unnamed female had “unfriended” the boy on Facebook. After the incident, the girl went to police and said the male arrived at her home claiming he lost his ID and needed to look for it.

He forced his way inside the residence and locked the female and her mother in a room before boiling water in the kitchen and dumping it on her face. The victim stated “He used to come for tuitions to our home. I accepted his friend request a year ago because I found him decent then. But of late he had become abusive and so I ‘unfriended’ him last week.”

The suspect fled the scene after the attack. And the girl is now recovering in the hospital.
