not just Africa!

This type of punishment is according to Islamic law. This type of incident happens in other Muslim areas such as India (where a man can disfigure a woman by throwing acid on her because she refused him), Afghanistan (where the Taliban does not pemit women to appear in public w/o a male escort) and other countries I cannot call at this time. I doubt this would happen in non-Muslim African countries.
