A woman who was left scarred for life by an acid attack orchestrated by her ex partner has told of her ordeal and her battled to rebuild her life. Vikki Horsman, 21, suffered horrific burns after jealous Mohammed Rafiq, 80, paid two thugs to throw sulphuric acid in her face, four months after she broke up with him. The care assistant from Smethwick, West Midlands, says: “The attack has completely changed my life. 'I’m scarred for life and the mental scars may never go.'
