From the beginning the doctors who saw the burns on the victim understood that there was a high amount of vitriol
New evidence[/B] about the attack with the caustic liquid in Heraklion.
The brown-coloured liquid sample from the glass jar contained, according to yesterday's Star's main news bulletin, an extremely high concentration of sulphate anions which is consistent with the possibility that the sample in question was a concentrated aqueous solution of sulphuric acid.
According to the report, the chemical composition of the caustic liquid refutes the claim of the 38-year-old woman that she did not want to harm her estranged husband.
In fact, the bottle she received via courier stated that it was sulphuric acid. The vitriol even when not clean causes burns and even death.
The analysis, as reported by the Star, was done on the glass jar, the underlay of the bed in room 408 where the attack took place and the victim's jeans as there were lesions there as well. From the beginning doctors who saw the burns on the victim realized that there was a high amount of vitriol in the caustic liquid and it is now confirmed.
