HIGHLIGHTS
Penalties will be aggravated against those who attack women with acid
December 3rd, 2019
This Thursday was the initiative of Morena, which proposes to aggravate the crime of injuries committed maliciously against women, with the use of acids, corrosive substances, or chemicals, since cases of this type of “extreme violence” are being made increasingly frequent in the State of Mexico and the country.
Acid attacks are a form of violent aggression, which consists of throwing acid into a person's body with the intention of disfiguring, mutilating, torturing or killing her, said the deputy of Morena, Mariana Uribe Bernal, author of the proposal, who He stressed that by increasing the penalty by 5 years, it could imply a penalty of up to 13 years in prison against the aggressors.
In its explanatory statement, the legislator warned that in these cases, the aggressors usually throw the acid into the faces of their victims, causing serious injuries by melting the skin and exposing the bones, which sometimes dissolve and some of the victims also They lose sight of one or both eyes.
