A lady has been scalded by boiling water in Arusha Tanzania

A lady known as Ms Neema Tetim, a resident of Mbuguni ward in Meru District was scalded by boiling water which was poured on her entire body by another woman who suspected her of being her husband's concubine. Neema was , was reportedly 'invited' by her alleged rival at the latter's house where she was offered a drink.
However, the contents inside the soda bottle given to her by Mrs Tatu Msuya reportedly looked suspicious, so she refused to drink the beverage.
"The Coca-Cola drink had a strange colour and the liquid inside was separated by strange layers, which scared me stiff, fearing that the soda might have been spiked with poison," said Ms Teti with difficulty from her bed at Mount Meru Hospital.
Apparently, seeing the poison trap had failed, the furious Mrs Tatu Msuya retreated to her kitchen only to emerge with a pail of boiling water which she proceeded to drench on Neema's entire body, scalding her seriously.
A medical attendant at Mount Meru Hospital, Ms Neema Bayo, said the victim arrived at the hospital in critical condition, but after treatment she was now improving, though much of her skin had totally peeled off.
The alleged attacker, Mrs Msuya, has disappeared without trace and the police have launched a manhunt for her. Even the husband, Mr Msuya, says he doesn't know her wife's whereabouts.
