A man has been charged over a suspected acid attack outside a nightclub in East London.

Police charged Serkan Kiziltan, 21, from Hackney, with one count of causing grievous bodily harm and one count of violent disorder following the altercation on Shacklewell Lane on May 6.

Three men, aged 17, 22 and 27, were injured after a noxious substance was thrown over them in Dalston in the early hours of the morning.

Police were called at 5.20am to reports of a disturbance in Kingsland High Street.

Scotland Yard said: “Officers attended and found three males suffering injuries believed to have been caused by a noxious substance.”

All three of the injured were taken to hospital.

Their injuries are not life threatening, however it is not known if they will be life changing, police said.

Mr Kiziltan will appear at Wood Green Crown Court on a date to be confirmed.
