Plenty of Freepers think that this sort of punishment is “justice” and call for it regularly. Hey stealing is stealing.

Not again.

This is a street performance that the man does with his son to earn money.
It is not a punishment for stealing bread.

Don’t be. Someone will be along shortly with a link showing it to be a common trick performed in the streets of India and Pakistan.

Yup. This one’s pretty lucky. When I was in Saudi, a British Nurse had her hand **pulled** off.

They scored it first...

I guess the penalty for minors is running over their wrist with a truck.

Street trick or punishment, that’s some damn cruel $@!?.

Putting a kids arm under a truck tire for jollies.

Evacuate the woman and children.........then push the big red button.

Oh, that’s OK then.

The people paying to see this need rounding up and shooting.
