My Mother-In-Law could be worse: 22 yr old wife torched by Mother-In-Law in India

Gurmeet Kaur of Kharar, India, is struggling for life with burns covering 50% of her body. Her mother-in-law Shakuntala Devi was arrested for attempted murder, according to the Hindustan Times.

In her statement to the police, the young victim cited greed as the reason behind her mother-in-law’s attempt on her life. Allegedly, while Gurmeet was cooking dinner, her mother-in-law started abusing her for failing to bring in money from her parents and suddenly poured kerosene oil on her clothes before torching her.

Yikes! This definitely makes my Mother-In-Law look benign. I'd better think twice before complaining next time.
