An Anti-Terrorism Court in Faisalabad handed down a 34-year imprisonment to Rukhsana, a girl who threw acid on her ex-fiancé’s father after her engagement was called off by her in-laws. Rukhshana, who had been arrested on November 10, 2010, was engaged to Shehzad and their engagement was broken by Shehzad’s family due to unknown reasons. After some time, on the evening of Shehzad’s mehndi, the girl reached his house in order to ‘avenge’ the humiliation and had a scuffle with his family. Shehzad’s father Akhtar Razzaq tried to stop the girl and in her defense, she threw acid on Razzaq’s face, leaving him blind in one eye.
