Iranian man sentenced to having his eyes gouged out, right ear and nose cut off after hurling acid in young girl's face



An Iranian man should be sentenced to having his eyes gouged out after pouring acid over a young girl's face leaving her blind, an Iranian court has ruled.
Opposition group, The National Council of Resistance of Iran, said the man could have his right ear and nose cut off as punishment for attacking the girl with acid, causing her to lose her eyesight and right ear.
The man was convicted last October of intentionally attacking the girl, haartez.com reported.
The national council said Iran's high court defended cutting off the body parts of those found guilty of a crime, and removing eyes, as part of the country's judicial system.
Last month, the state-run Mehr news agency, reported another Iranian man was sentenced to have one hand and one foot cut off as punishment for an unspecified crime.
As many as 95 people are thought to have been executed in Iran this year.
The dramatic rise in the use of the death penalty has dashed hopes for human rights reform under President Hassan Rohani, the United Nations said earlier this year.
President Rohani won a surprise election last year, after pledging more openness with the West.

In September, the country released dozens of political prisoners, prompting hopes Iran would improve their human rights record.



'There were some encouraging signs last year where political prisoners were released ... But it appears at least in the past seven weeks that in fact executions have been scaled up,' UN human rights spokeswoman Ravina Shamdasani told a news briefing.
'We regret that the new government has not changed its approach to the death penalty and continues to impose capital punishment for a wide range of offences. We urge the government to immediately halt executions and to institute a moratorium.'
Last year Iran executed between 500 and 625 people, including at least 28 women and two children, Ms Shamdasani said

These stories n=must be the hardest for your daily mail reader. the contradiction of the initial initial enthusiasm for eye for euye justice followed by the realisation and revulsion after noticing just how alined they are with the nastier side of Muslim culture... its got to hurt.

Stupid paranoid bollocks.... ho yes and its not true is it. even the daily mail fails to mention a muslim name in their top ten... neither do the bbc


Though I guess you play games like limiting your search to say tower hamlets and then pretending that its representative of the country.... then I guess you could it.... but its still a lie. So which are you a fool for falling for it or a spin doctor lying his pants off.

wish the Iranians would get a hold of my wife and cut her tongue out

my enthusiasm for "eye for an eye" justice never wanes, i wish they would use it in uk courts, especially for recidivist scum who commit nasty vicious violent crimes against women, children and the elderly.

[leemo]

You lot should stop taking the piss, it's the Will of Allah the Merciful and Compassionate.

[Yasojack]

I'm coming to think the same, the UK sentences are becoming a joke.

Friend of mine who works in the courts tells me, best way to get off with lighter sentences is to say you were abused as a child or your a drug addict alcoholic the list goes on.

totally pathetic.

WTF did the two children do to be executed.???????

[sabang]

why don't they just execute him, and save the bother?

[Latindancer]

He needs to be made an example of as a deterrent to others. And I wouldn't be surprised if it works better than our system.

Not as much fun as playing with their judicial Mr Potatoehead.

Too many Sikhs and Hindus for that to happen

The problem I have with these sentences is that they do nothing for the victim.

I would personally prefer to see criminals such as this given a lifetime of imprisonment in a labour camp where they produce something which may be sold in order that the proceeds may help improve the victim's life. Thus, you blind someone with acid and consequently spend the remainder of your life working to make their life better. Your life isn't worth spit, of course.
