A lady identified as Pauline Mugure from Kenya was disfigured after her husband allegedly attacked her and set her on fire in a violent domestic abuse attack.
According to reports, the victim was burnt with a stove and boiling stew and has been moving from one hospital to another with no reprieve due to the doctors’ strike in Kenya, which has forced the hospital to discharge her before she had fully recovered.
The mother-of-one who had remained in a coma for almost a month and a half after being admitted at the hospital, said: “When the strike started [on December 5 last year], I was discharged and asked to go heal at home.”
The woman who got serious burns from the incident that happened in September 2016, said she cannot get further treatment because doctors are on strike, adding that she could not afford private hospital fees.
“He had come home with meat and while I was cooking it he took my phone and found a text message in which a male friend had invited me for a cup of tea. We quarreled and after a few minutes he picked the stove, threw it at me and it exploded on my upper body,"

I suspect this isn't the first time he had been cruel to her. But this was the last. Omg. .how painful. The stove hitting her....then the pain from the fire :((((
How can she recover from this ??
Hope he's caught and sent to prison for a very very long time.
