An Eye for an Eye
I remember a while back reading about this news story of an Iranian woman who lost her site due to someone throwing acid on her face. The attack was definitely intentional although the outcome of it we will never really know for sure. The attack came from an admirer of the woman. It was from a man who was 5 years younger and who wanted to marry her. He said he threw acid on her face out of love.
Of course the courts didn’t fall for that and they have accepted her plea of an eye for an eye. Alot of times the victims will get money instead if they fall victim to such an attack. Unfortunately for the crazy man who did it she wanted him to suffer the way she did instead, and soon that will happen. The attack took place in 2005 and finally the punishment is coming. He is scheduled to lose his site by the end of this month.
