A woman in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh who survived an alleged gang‑rape and four separate acid attacks has been targeted again by an acid‑thrower.

She was attacked outside a women's hostel while getting water from a hand pump.

The woman who is 35-years-old had been receiving round‑the‑clock police protection because of the previous attacks, which were linked to a property dispute.

Anger is growing at the authorities' inability to protect her.

She was allegedly gang‑raped and first attacked with acid by two men in 2008, over a property dispute.

The same two men are then accused of throwing acid at her in 2012 and 2013.
