<h1>Staged acid attack proved fake; forensic tests found toilet cleaner and father arrested for plotting the incident.</h1> Staged acid attack investigation found no attackers or corrosive traces; forensic testing identified the seized liquid as toilet cleaner and enquiries indicated the victim self-applied it to simulate an attack. Police uncovered a family-orchestrated scheme, leading to the arrest of the victim's father after he admitted plotting the incident in retaliation linked to an earlier rape complaint, and allegations exist that he previously sexually assaulted the victim; further questioning and evidence collection continue to determine criminal liability.
