They threatened him with knives and then threw a corrosive substance, causing facial injuries.

As he tried to wash his face in a sink, they dumped more on his back.

John said of Monday’s attack in Aldenham: Herts: “I could only see their eyes and hear their voices, but I know who did it.

“It was clearly a targeted attack.”

He was taken to a specialist burns unit but was warned he would “never look the same again”.

John added: “I am unrecognizable.

“What if I scare my eleven-month-old baby?”

Police made no arrests but said they had “information that the suspects were two women.”
