IN a village near Loralai, the eyes of 22-year-old boy were gouged out by his father with the help of his two other children.

The reason was the son had wanted his father to send a marriage proposal to the girl he liked.

What kind of cruel fathers are there in this world who gouge out the eyes of their own children.

This is a shameful act.The government should take strict action against such happenings.
