The police have detained three men accused of the brutal acid attack on the 17-year-old girl in Delhi on Wednesday.

Two men on a bike today threw acid at a 17-year-old girl in the Dwarka neighbourhood of southwest Delhi, causing serious injuries that required hospitalisation. The two suspects are accused of committing the horrifying crime. The three accused have been detained by police, according to DCP Dwarka M Harshvardhan, who were involved in the acid attack on a 17-year-old girl in Dwarka.

Two of the three arrested suspects were riding bicycles, and one other boy was later named as a key suspect in the investigation. Harshvardhan, a senior police official from the Dwarka region, previously stated that several teams had been formed to apprehend the suspect.

According to police, three men have been detained in relation to the Wednesday morning acid attack on a 17-year-old girl in west Delhi. According to them, they are currently being questioned to determine the attack's motivation.

The chemical apparently splashed across the girl's face and into her eyes, according to her father. The teen girl was reportedly attacked on Wednesday in the Dwarka neighbourhood of Delhi. The attack happened at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, and two men on a bike are seen attacking the young girl in the CCTV footage. The two bikers viciously attacked the girl with acid while she was walking with her younger sister.

Women's organisations and others, including Lt. Governor V K Saxena, raised concerns about the presence of acid in markets despite a restriction as uproar over the acid attack grew. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal questioned how the accused summoned up such courage.
