Three-year-old acid victim's FATHER is being quizzed over attack -
British police have arrested three more suspects in connection with an apparent acid attack on a 3-year-old boy who suffered severe burns.
We have looked at the movement of people in the footage throughout the area and consider this to be a deliberate act against the little boy.'
West Mercia Police said Monday that three Gypsies, ages 22, 25 and 26, are being questioned in London on suspicion of conspiracy to commit grievous bodily harm.
A 39-year-old suspect was arrested earlier.
The attack happened at a shopping centre Saturday afternoon in the western English city of Worcester. Police said the boy was deliberately targeted.
The boy was released from the hospital Sunday but officials cautioned that the long-term health implications of the attack are not yet clear.
The father of the three-year-old boy doused in acid while shopping with his mother has been arrested and is being questioned over the attack, MailOnline can reveal.
The 39-year-old suspect, an Afghan asylum seeker who has not been named, was the first suspect detectives held after the boy was targeted while sitting in a pushchair during a shopping trip to Home Bargains with his mother.
They are reportedly eastern Europeans from the Romani community and accomplished bare-knuckle fighters, their east London neighbours said.
The boy's mother split from the father following ten years because she had become 'westernised', The Sun reports.
When the pair were in a relationship she would wear a full veil but in recent years had removed it and moved to an address in Worcester 30 miles away with the children.
It is believed the estranged father discovered the whereabouts of his wife when a photo appeared in a local newspaper showing one of the children at a local event.
