I received this information in an Email from my sister in law who lives in Colombia last night.

My Email is in Spanish so I can only take it for granted that the explanation is what it is supposed to be.

She originally received this information from another attorney in Turkey.

Evidently the Iranian boy was hungry and stole a piece of bread.

He was caught and the men decided that his punishment should be having his arm broke.

So they laid the little child down, placed his arm on a rag and you can see the results.

I was surprised to see this information on a web site in a predominately Muslim country.

They must be proud of what they are doing.

Never mind that the child may be crippled for the rest of his life but Islam has been appeased.

If you have a different take on this story please post.

Maybe the boy said he was reading the bible?
