Londonistan acid attack capital of the World...

At least one acid attack per day is being reported in the capital - and there are fears the true figure is even higher


The horrific acid attack spree in London last night adds to an alarming spike in reports of the crime.

Police are linking five attacks carried out in less than 90 minutes in an area spanning barely three miles in Hackney and Islington.


At least one victim has suffered "life-changing" injuries.

The Met Police said a teenager has been arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily harm and robbery.

The shocking rampage is just the latest in a series of acid attacks that have blighted the capital.

Figures released earlier this year showed 431 acid attacks were reported in London in 2016, up from 261 the previous year.

There have been almost 1,500 since 2011.

And the true figure is probably higher as some victims choose not to report the crime.



this is just incredible...

what is the London Mayor doing about it??

as he would say.. its the price for living in a big city.. dur...

whats his name?

Sadiq Khan?

"Sadiq Khan today called on the Government to bring in a “zero-tolerance” approach to acid attacks after a string of assaults in London.

"The Mayor backed plans to bring in tougher sentences, clarify guidelines for judges and clamp down on the sale of corrosive substances.

"He also demanded more long-term support for victims after six people were doused with corrosive liquid on London’s streets in just 24 hours."

Well we need some real demographics for starters with this claim.  I remember Bangladesh, India and Pakistan as being the major contributors to this problem.

Quote:
Today, acid attacks are reported in many parts of the world. Since the 1990s, Bangladesh has been reporting the highest number of attacks and highest incidence rates for women, with 3,512 Bangladeshi people acid attacked between 1999 and 2013. Although acid attacks occur all over the world, this type of violence is most common in South Asia.


Quote:
In Bangladesh, such attacks are relatively common.  Bangladesh has the highest reported incidence of acid assault in the world.


Quote:
Acid attacks are often referred to as a "crime of passion", fueled by jealousy and revenge. Actual cases though, show that they are usually the result of rage at a woman who rebuffs the advances of a male. For the country of Bangladesh, such passion is often rooted in marriage and relationships. One study showed that refusal of marriage proposals accounted for 55% of acid assaults, with abuse from a husband or other family member (18%), property disputes (11%) and refusal of sexual or romantic advances (2%) as other leading causes. Additionally, the use of acid attacks in dowry arguments has been reported in Bangladesh, with 15% of cases studied by the Acid Survivors Foundation citing dowry disputes as the motive. The chemical agents most commonly used to commit these attacks are hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid.


Quote:
According to New York Times reporter Nicholas D. Kristof, acid attacks are at an all-time high in Pakistan and increasing every year. The Pakistani attacks he describes are typically the work of husbands against their wives who have "dishonored them."


Quote:
Such attacks or threats against women who failed to wear hijab, dress "modestly" or otherwise threaten traditional norms have been reported in Afghanistan. In November 2008, extremists subjected girls to acid attacks for attending school.


Quote:
In 2016 police in London, England recorded 454 attacks involving corrosive fluids in the city, with 261 in the previous year, indicating a rise of 74 percent. A rise of 30 percent was also recorded in the UK as a whole. Between 2005/6 and 2011/12 the number of assaults involving acid throwing and other corrosive substances tripled in England, official records show. NHS hospital figures record 144 assaults in 2011/12 involving corrosive substances, which can include petrol, bleach and kerosene. Six years earlier, 56 such episodes were noted. One British expert says she believes many of the cases involving acid are linked to communities of immigrants from Asia, with women attacked by their husbands or punished for refusing forced marriages.   Data suggests that both the attackers and victims are mostly white British males.
