A former Fiji resident who was found with serious burns in Western Sydney last month has died in hospital.

According to ABC, 39-year-old Monika Chetty was found in bushland at West Hoxton with horrific burns to 80% of her face and body.

When she was first found, Chetty managed to tell police a man had thrown chemicals at her in Liverpool sometime before New Year’s Eve.
 
She was taken to Concord Hospital in a critical condition and yesterday died of her injuries.

According to Australian Police, Chetty was not living with her husband and children for several years.
