2 injured August 7, 2013 Zanzibar Acid Attack on British Jewish Women and Priests Two men on a motorbike threw battery acid on the British volunteer teachers Katie Gee and Kirstie Trup, both 18 years old, at night as they walked to a restaurant in Stone Town. They had volunteered to teach for at least two weeks at a school in Stone Town, and had previously been struck in the face by a woman angry at singing during Ramadan and had an argument with a shopkeeper days before. Friends speculated the attack may be because they were jewish, and both were Federation for Zionist Youth members. Police issued a warrant for the arrest of Islamist preacher Sheikh Issa Ponda Issa, amid suggestions his teaching could have influenced the attackers.
According to reports, it was the third attack on the pair during their stay on the island. Gee told friends she was assaulted in the street by a Muslim woman two weeks earlier, apparently for singing during Ramadan. A project worker said the teenagers were also involved in an argument with a shopkeeper days before the acid attack.

- long-term, Tanzania, and indeed, other regions where acid attacks are growing in prevalence, need a fundamental shift in perceptions of the welfare of women. Unless, and until, that happens, the violence will continue.
- 1,500 acid attacks reported globally each year, though according to Acid Survivors Trust International,
- Laws: India and Bangladesh have drafted laws aimed at controlling the sale, storage and distribution of certain types of acid. Pakistan passed a law a couple of years ago making perpetrators of acid attacks subject to lifetime imprisonment.

"These Islamist criminals who throw acid at women should be sent to the gallows or have the same thing happen to them! This time they used battery acid! This battery acid melts the skin and clothes upon contact. It is a horrendous crime. If this should happen to you don't touch it or your hands will melt as well. Battery acid must be wiped off the surface of the skin with a damp soft cloth immediately and then flushed for at around 15 minutes with running water. It is imperative that immediate attention be received to reduce the severity of the crime. Remove all jewelry with gloved hands. These two British girls were volunteering in Zanzibar, a 98% Musim country.

(JTA) — The Zanzibar government has offered a $6,170 reward for information on attackers who threw acid at two British Jewish women.Kirstie Trup and Katie Gee, both 18 and from London, sustained injuries on their faces, chests and hands after two men on a moped threw acid at them Wednesday night, in Zanzibar City, the capital of the island off of eastern Africa.The island’s Police Commissioner Musa Ali Musa told the BBC that there was “no prime suspect” for the attack. He said that a lot of people had been questioned and information gathered. No one has been arrested or charged and investigations are continuing, Musa said.The police chief said it was the first time visitors to the island had been attacked in this way, describing the incident as “alien” to both the police investigating and the victims. Officers had no idea as to the motive, he said.The two young Britons, who were volunteering as teachers for the charity Art in Tanzania, were flown back to Britain Friday. The London Jewish Chronicle reported that both were Federation for Zionist Youth members.The attack took place in Stone Town, the old part of Zanzibar’s capital, on Wednesday.Zanzibar’s President Ali Mohammed Shein said the assault had “brought chaos and confusion to our country and outside”.Speaking to Muslims celebrating the Eid al-Fitr festival, he said: “It was not a civilized act, it is not Islam. It was very cruel to throw acid on these innocent young girls.”The BBC’s Tulanana Bohela, in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania’s capital, said Islam is the main religion on Zanzibar. In more remote parts of the island, away from tourist beaches, there are signs asking foreigners to respect the local culture and cover up, she said.Zanzibar, a semi-autonomous archipelago, is part of Tanzania.
