Here is yet another case of savage butchery committed against a woman for offending the honor of a man. From the New Brisbane's News:

MULTAN, Pakistan - A Pakistani man cut off the nose and lips of his 19-year-old sister-in-law after she went to court for a divorce in a tribal area of the central province of Punjab, police said on Thursday. Abbas then attacked the girl, hacking off her nose and slicing off her lips.

A doctor treating the girl said her nose had been cut off from the bridge and her lips partially severed.

Numerous cases have also been reported of women being disfigured as punishment for offending a man‘s honour.

Shaista Bukhari, coordinator of a women‘s rights group in Multan, said that until courts handed down death sentences for such crimes, violence against women would continue.

Sub Inspector Shafiq said the girl‘s attacker, once caught, would be tried in a anti-terrorist court, which are meant to deliver justice rapidly.

Someone really needs to "go Commanche" on that perp's ass. Staking him to an anthill would be a good start.

This really has nothing to do with the article...I just needed an excuse to post it.
