Others include Shytol Kumar, 14, (top right) attacked as he slept beside his mother, Umma Aysha Siddike Nila (bottom right) who was 15 when she was attacked by her husband and Shamsun Nahar, 43 who was blinded by her children's music teacher after she refused to have an affair with him. All of the haunting photographs were taken at Dhaka's Jibontara hospital, a specialist burns unit run by the Acid Survivors Foundation.
