Iran Supreme Court Issues Literal Eye-for-Eye Ruling: Convict to Have Eye Gouged Out

The Iranian Supreme Court sentenced a man to have his eye gouged out in accordance with the country’s strict retribution laws, The Independent reported on Tuesday. The convict, identified only as 28-year-old Saman, brawled with his then-25-year-old victim Jalal in 2011. Saman said that he unintentionally blinded Jalal during the altercation with a metal rod, according to the Norway-based organization Iran Human Rights.

Im concerned that maybe the offender had good reason for taking out his victims eye. Its obvious the court saw a dhance at a religious parallel.
