>Medics gouge out man’s eye in first known case where retribution ruling has been carried out, amid condemnation from human rights groups

Apparently, there are a lot acid attacks in Iran.

>Last year, a spate of acid attacks on young women in Iran’s top tourist destination, Isfahan, caused national horror and outrage. Activists claimed that unlike other cases across the country, victims in Isfahan had been targeted by hardliners for wearing clothes deemed inappropriate. The authorities have vehemently denied this charge.

I think it's fair punishment. If the attackee is aware that he is about to get acid splashed on him then the attacker should as well. However, if the attackee was unaware and was doing day to day the attacker should also get splashed. I wonder if it smells bad when your flesh is burning as well do you know what type of acid?

Probably hydrochloric acid. Its a commonly used chemical.

Sulfuric acid is another likely possibility - car battery acid.

Fuck, I can't imagine anything worse than that.

>The attacker will be able to plead with the plaintiff to spare him from being blinded fully
>Under Iranian law, victims or their families have the final say in such cases
If the article was supposed to make me feel bad about this, it has failed.
I laugh in the face of those who decry it as cruel and inhumane, as if the one getting it was innocent. The only one who should have the right to decide what is acceptable here is the victim, nobody else.

>Raha Bahreini, a researcher with Amnesty International’s Iran team, said that punishing someone by deliberately blinding them is “an unspeakably cruel and shocking act”.

>She told the Guardian: “Blinding is totally prohibited under international law, along with stoning, flogging, amputation and other forms of corporal punishment provided in Iran’s Islamic penal code and must not be carried out under any circumstances.”


>Instead of meting out such macabre punishments, Bahreini said Iranian authorities “should raise awareness about violence including root causes, ensure that perpetrators of acid attacks are punished with appropriate and proportionate penalties consistent with international human rights norms, and survivors are provided with effective remedies, including compensation and psychosocial and medical rehabilitation.”


Is this person trying to say to put the attacker in prison and have him pay financially?

I totally agree… In a just state it is always the victim who decide what punishment the criminal should get. If someone steals something dear to me I should have the right to chop their hand of, since I am the victim.
