Jalat Khan | 6 years ago | Reply The courts have to get tough with acid throwers. Any one convicted of throwing acid on some one should be tied to a chair and then acid to poured on him slowly starting from his face. It will be even better if the the punishment is shown on live TV , I bet people watching the punishment will think ten time before throwing acid on some one. Just imagine what pain and suffering this 20 years old young girl in Sialkot is going through right now.
