In a shocking turn of events in south London, the mother who was severely injured in a chemical attack, alongside her two young daughters, has been revealed to have had a prior relationship with the suspected assailant. The Metropolitan Police disclosed that the motive behind this distressing incident could stem from the dissolution of their relationship, underscoring the personal nature of the attack.

The suspect, identified as 35-year-old Abdul Ezedi, has been the subject of an extensive manhunt following the attack, which occurred shortly after 7pm on January 31. Despite concerted efforts by law enforcement, Ezedi remains at large, with his last known whereabouts traced to the vicinity of the River Thames, based on his use of the Tube network and subsequent pedestrian movements.
