On April 24th, a 50-year-old dude from Birmingham, named Raju Mola, just landed a 26-year prison sentence for trying to kill his wife. He poured scorching hot oil on her head and smashed her with a frying pan, all after telling her to make him an omelette, one night last January. Tensions had been building for days after arguments over a divorce and property back in Bangladesh. Mola came home from work, heated oil in the pan, then grabbed her hair while her back was turned and when full attack mode, even ramming a mop into, her face and stomping her head. His wife wound up with brutal burns across her face and body, a brain bleed, busted teeth, cuts everywhere, and hair singed off. She's trapped in her home now, ditched college dreams of teaching, avoids mirrors, and feels her whole life and family got wrecked, though divorce said. Her free from him. Mola copped a causing serious harm, but Swore wasn't attempted murder. Jury saw through his self-defense story at Birmingham Crown Court last August and the

judge slammed him, Friday calling the burns horrific and permanent disfigurement. And definitely restraining order keeps him away from her and the kids forever. Just as hit hard on this nightmare, leaving scars that won't fade anytime soon.
