A man has been sentenced to have his eyes gouged out in Iran after damaging the sight of a man during a street fight, it has been reported.
The horrifying 'eye for an eye' sentence was handed down to a 27-year-old man, referred to only by his first name, Hamed.
It is punishment for unintentionally injuring a man's eye during a brawl in March 2011, when he was just 23 years old.
According to the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), which translated the story from Iran's official state-run newspaper, Hamad told the court: 'It was around midnight and I was sitting at home when my mother called me and said that my father had gotten into a car accident.
'I rushed to the scene to help my dad, but I really didn’t intend to injure anyone's eye.' Full story...
