In 2004, Ameneh Bahrami was returning home after a days work when she was attacked by a man ( Majid Movahedi ) who threw acid in her face blinding and disfiguring her. The woman had turned down his marriage proposal.
The attacker admitted to the attack and in the best interest of justice he will have acid dropped into both of his eyes by his victim who had asked the court for an eye for an eye retribution, which is allowed under Islamic law.
The court did so in November 2008, calling for five drops of sulfuric acid to be placed in each of his eyes. MSNBC
Naturally, human rights groups are upset about this and they have asked Bahrami to pardon Movahedi, which she has said that she is not going to do.
This will take place on Saturday, May 14 at noon.
The lawyer said that at noon Saturday, Ameneh Bahrami would drop acid in both eyes of Majid Movahedi, 30, after he is rendered unconscious at a judiciary hospital in Tehran, The Guardian newspaper reported, citing Iranian media.
That is real justice people, and we could use justice such as this right here in the United States. An eye for an eye? Many of the criminals in this country would think twice about the heinous crimes which they commit if they knew the victim or their families would have the option of doing the same thing to them as they have done to the victim when caught and convicted.
