Pretty rough justice

Sir Arthur Daley

It was too good for him.

The police are acting as if they would do something about it if it was reported. I thought a major problem in India was that they rarely would leaving mob justice or no justice as the only options.

Slicemeister

Butchers have their own edging stones, the knife should be ok.

moxin

Good justice but you know your Western ahem Irish values, the heroes will be prosecuted by the Gardai/overpaid judges more than the rapist.

Shakespeare's Sister

I agree with the mob's sentiment but not with the genital hacking.

That pose in the last picture though

Finally some good news.

I don't know how people can applaud this. The man attempted a horrible crime. the crowd carried out another horrible crime. Raping is a bad thing, maiming isn't something to cheer on either.

Like Shakespears Sister, I understand the sentiment but I feel sick at the action.

No pity for the rapist but you get the feeling that the animal urges of the punished and the punishers in these cases are somewhat similar albeit that the latter opportunistically exploits a pseudo - moral premise.

Exactly. There's an appetite for brutality involved.

The whole thing is just shifting from ignoring victims to brutalising those accused of victimisation.

The auld justice thing seems like an afterthought in any case.

By castrating him, he certainly will not do it again, guaranteed.

Tombi!

India tends to give favour towards the rapist if it's a man raping a woman so I can understand the group.
However, castration or whatever is too far.
But again, I understand completely why they did it. Hopefully it will lead to a legal system change there towards how crimes against women are seen

Yeah.. in the same way that if you cut a thiefs hands off he'll no longer be able to steal

You cannot be comparing rape and stealing like for like.

Not the same, castration removes the urge for sex crime. Thats a good thing.

I think that he means that he won't be able to repeat the crime!

Good, should happen to all rapists.

Your missing the point also, do you think rape and theft are in the same league?

Turtwig

What if the rapist was innocent and never raped anyone?

pigmounter

Of course the actions of the rapist were despicable but that doesn't mean the mob should have took the law into their own hands. Nobody deserves that treatment no matter what theyve done.

I'm sure the manic mob will pay for the reattachment surgery and offer him many apologies.

I think he should be sent to prison; I think hacking off his genitals is ****ing barbaric.

Fúck him. If somebody raped anyone I loved I wouldn't care what happened him. I just wouldn't have the guts to do what they did...

kneemos

Nobody was raped.

Suspected rapist?

BMJD

the whole thing smells like bull$hit, he only has a few scratches despite being "beaten for an hour with sticks
Before angry locals used a meat clever (sic lol) to castrate the 40-year-old

give him back his mickey I say

The point that the OP made was that, would chopping someone’s hands off prevent them from stealing again! yes it would, does chopping off someone's dick stop them from raping, yes it does!

He makes no comment about them being in the same league.

It was not the op that you are getting your opinions on, best leave that poster post his opinion on his thoughts unless you are a mind reader.

You're not reading my mind. that's for sure.

Shakespeare's Sister

This reminds me of a thing that was on Facebook following that horrific case on the bus in India a couple of years back:

It was an illustration of a row of poles and a few naked men with their hands tied to each pole and sitting on the ground, rats attacking their genitals, with the caption "This is what should be done to rapists". The thing was liked by thousands of people and anyone who commented that it was barbaric were of course shouted down with accusations of "You support rape" and similar tripe. One woman who commented that it was barbaric was met with "Maybe you should be raped so lol".

That's what this reminds me of - not totally sure all who attacked this man, reprehensible and all as he is, really cares that much for his potential victim.

Does it? Any links to back that up? Would cutting a gay man's penis off mean that he becomes asexual and never has any urges afterwards?

Stuff like that doesn't stem from the tool.. but from the person using it.

How more confusing do you want to make this?

You do realize that testicles and male sexuality are inherently linked, right?

/edit - by the way, the link says 'castrated', which is the removal of the balls. The rest stays.

A non functioning sex organ can't interact with messages from the brain I'm guessing. They are linked.

Linked enough to warrant the procedure? I don't think so

If it's shown to be effective then let's have a debate on how and why we should consider it. Cheering a bunch of plebs mutilating another person before even cops show up is kinda dumb.

If you think rape is usually a sexually motivated crime, perhaps.

Laois6556

They shouldn't chop off his genitals in this way but it should be all govenments policy to punish rapists severely, just do it in a more humane way. Maybe render them useless by medical means. I don't think anyone can complain about this method.

CrazyRabbit

After finding the 40-year-old pinning the girl against a wall, a lynch mob dragged him to a butchers shop where they beat him with sticks for an hour before castrating him.

Pinning a girl against wall does not equate to rape or even attempted rape. Yes, the guy is likely a real asshole, but this punishment is far too aggressive for what is essentially a suspected attempt at a crime.

Its not justice at all. Its retribution. For an assault that may have led to rape, but did not.

I understood why the mob did what they did. But what the mob did was wrong. No question. Even if the punishment was considered an appropriate one in the jurisdiction, the accused has the right to offer a defence.

What if, and I'm of course speculating here, he hadn't intended rape? What if his wallet had been stolen and he rightly or wrongly attacked the girl believing her to be the thief? Does he deserve mutilation for that?

Punishment is meted out by cooler heads, after consideration, and after the fact when all information impacting on the potential severity of that punishment may be taken into account.

The wider question is a societal one for India. Why is sexual violence against women so widespread, why does the indian legal system seem happy not to deal with it, and why would the general populace feel it both necessary and appropriate to take matters into their own hands?

Someone in tGC just posted the following link in another thread

Seems strangely timely given the mob mentality were seeing supported by many posters on this thread.
