Reports from Argentina describe separate incidents of domestic violence involving attacks with boiling water.

In Rosario de Lerma, a 60-year-old man was provisionally charged with aggravated minor injuries, threats, and judicial disobedience. The charges follow an August 6 incident where the man allegedly threw boiling water from an electric kettle at a 37-year-old woman’s face during a dispute that violated mutual restraining orders.

In Resistencia, a 35-year-old woman, Claudia Elizabeth Romero, was arrested following an August 24 attack on her former partner, 27-year-old Juan Cruz Silvero. The victim sustained second-degree burns to his hands, legs, and thigh. Romero was apprehended on August 28, and the case is being investigated by Prosecutor Liliana Beatriz Irala.
