    Digital Desk: All three suspects have been nabbed by Delhi Police for reportedly throwing acid at a 17-year-old girl in the national capital's Dwarka this morning. 

    Dwarka DCP M Harshvardhan stated on Wednesday that the police have solved the case by arresting all three suspects. A 17-year-old girl was allegedly attacked with acid by two bike-riding men in Delhi's Dwarka district area on Wednesday, according to police. The girl was referred to Safdarjung Hospital and is currently being treated there. 

    Previously, the police detained one individual in the case after the victim expressed suspicions about two people she knew. Later, another boy surfaced as a major suspect in the acid attack on a juvenile girl in Delhi, according to the Dwarka DCP on Wednesday.

    "Today, information was received at Dwarka's Mohan Garden Police Station that a 17-year-old female was attacked with an acid-like substance by two bike-riding boys. She is receiving treatment and is said to be stable. She has acquired 8% burn damage. "One boy was detained and is being questioned," stated DCP Dwarka. 

    According to authorities, a PCR report was received about an acid attack on a girl in the Police Station Mohan Garden neighbourhood.

    Two people on a bike allegedly attacked a female with an acid-like substance at 7:30 a.m. this morning, according to police. 

    "At the time of the occurrence, the girl was with her younger sister. She has voiced concerns about two people they know. "One individual has been detained, and additional investigation is underway," claimed Delhi Police. 

    "My two daughters were heading to school at 7:29 a.m., but later about 7:35 a.m., my younger daughter returned home and told me that two boys had poured acid on her elder sister," the victim's father claimed. The suspects had their faces concealed, as evidenced by CCTV footage." 

    Her condition is deteriorating, and we are really concerned. We've talked to the cops, the father stated. 

    "My younger daughter came rushing in and told me that acid had been thrown at her elder sister," the victim's mother stated. Her condition is deteriorating."
