will always stay in the flower season of 2020

According to witnesses at the scene, the hair at the scene was corroded and smoke was raised, and the girl's cornea also melted. The terrifying screams made people never forget it for the rest of their lives.
Description from classmates
No one can imagine what the three girls were thinking in their hearts at that moment.
I guess in addition to the heart-wrenching pain, they are thinking about what to do in the future, and maybe they dare not think about what to do in the future. As soon as the incident happened, the discussions on this sulfuric acid disfigure case between the Internet focused on what disputes would retaliate against the other party in broad daylight.
But at that moment, what I was thinking was why he chose a weapon like sulfuric acid .
sulfate molecular formula is H2SO4, which is a colorless and odorless oily liquid.
Its dehydration and strong corrosive properties will cause 3 carbonization when it comes into contact with the skin, forming strong stimulation can cause blindness in both eyes. The inhaled sulfuric acid mist will cause respiratory tract stimulation reactions, seriously harming the health of the human respiratory system.
When the roll paper encounters sulfuric acid
Among this series of sequelae, the most difficult thing to cure is the large area of irreversible deep scars caused by sulfuric acid to the body.
In today's medicine is so developed, there is still no way for such diseases in the medical field.
Therefore, sulfuric acid has always been a strictly controlled and prone to toxic chemical and cannot be purchased privately without the permission of the relevant departments.
In addition to being a dangerous product, it poses a life threat to life, another reason why sulfuric acid is strictly controlled is that it is often used by criminals as a tool for committing crimes.
Their purpose of choosing sulfuric acid is obviously not to kill people and bleed, so I have a good time.
Instead, the victim will be accompanied by physical pain and reputational stains caused by disfigurement in the second half of his life.
His heart can be punished!
is the same as stigmatized and locked-up victims
According to data from the ASTI International Acid Attack Victims Organization, as many as 1,500 registered sulfuric acid infringement incidents are recorded worldwide every year, of which more than 80% of the victims are women.

These data are only learned based on visits by public welfare organizations, and there are also a large number of cases of disfigurement or even death by sulfuric acid and not being disclosed.
. These cases have not been disclosed mainly because disfigurement can be used for too low sentencing , or if the victims are not concerned.
It can be seen that sulfuric acid has become the most vicious and difficult weapon of violence against women.
In India, where female violence cases are high, a violent crime against women occurs every three minutes on average, and a large part of them are sulfuric acid disfigure cases.
According to preliminary statistics from the Indian public welfare organization "Stop Sulfuric Acid Attack", there are about 5,000 sulfuric acid disfigureers in India.
Since many sulfuric acid events occur in remote areas, it is difficult to achieve complete statistics of the real numbers.
20-year-old girl was thrown into sulfuric acid by her father for accusing her father of "trafficking children", and what makes people feel even more chilling is that the reason why they are thrown into their faces by their husbands, boyfriends or just suitors is often just because of some family trivial matters.
But when sulfuric acid touches the skin, they lose not only their appearance, but also the reputational humiliation of that accompanied the "disfigure case".
These female victims who have been taken away by sulfuric acid are not only forced to accept various pressures from all walks of life, but also endure all kinds of false stigmatization arrangements. The " social death " brought about by disfigurement of " makes it difficult for them to return to society normally after curing external illnesses and covering up scars.
With such a victim identity, they have to face a path that is more difficult to walk than to survive in the rest of their lives.
In order to give these women a way to return to society, in 2005, the "Stop Sulfuric Acid Attack" organization in Delhi, India opened a cafe called "sheroes hanggout" near the crowded Taj Mahal .
In the name of public welfare assistance, the cafe took in dozens of women who were disfigured by sulfuric acid.
In addition to providing them with jobs and learning some life skills, it is more important that every employee working and living here no longer has to wear a veil to show off.
No one will ask you why you were disfigured, and no one will even take a look at the scars on your face.
Here, scars represent only an end point of unbearable experience in the past, and it is also another origin of the courage to rebirth in Nirvana.
In order to prove that they are "living", they began to try other jobs after graduating from the training of sheroes hanggout cafe.
2016 New York Fashion Week runway, 19-year-old Indian girl Reshma Kureshi became the last finale model to appear that night.
Shima Kulei
Scar-covered skin and empty eye sockets are telling the public that she is a victim of the sulfuric acid disfigurement case.
In 2014, Reshma Kureshi, who was only 14 years old, was thrown into sulfuric acid with his sister at his doorstep. The crowds of people present were surging, but no one helped.
After several days and nights of rescue, Reshma Kureshi, who escaped by chance, woke up and greeted her with even more painful results.
"When I first looked in the mirror, I couldn't believe that this ugly monster was myself! I made a heart-wrenching cry. I said to my family, 'Kill me, I really don't want to live anymore!'"
In order to let Reshma Kureshi have the courage and motivation to survive again, his family sent her to the sheroes hanggout cafe.
Here she came into contact with special effects cosmetics, opened a YouTube account, and learned how to smile at others again.
In a few years, she gradually transformed into another Reshma Kulei at the sheroes hanggout cafe.
A disfigureed victim and is also a special effect beauty blogger.
When Reshma Kulei appeared on the runway of New York Fashion Week, countless female victims with the same fate as her also saw hope, but this hope was as weak as fireflies.
Because in India, Reshma Kureden is still the topic of conversation for people after dinner.
The sulfuric acid disfiguration case six years ago was just an excessive product of an emotional dispute in their mouths.
There are so many women on the street, why don’t you just splash others?
What's even more terrifying is that such malicious intentions are also lurking around us, waiting for the opportunity to act when the female victim appears.
"stain victim" who survived and survived miserably
In 2011, Tao Rukun, who was in the first year of high school in Hefei, knocked on the door of Zhou Yan , a girl of the same grade.
Before, Tao Rukun was begged by Zhou's parents to stop harassing his daughter many times, and Zhou Yan even took a break from school for a while.
But this time, Tao Rukun came prepared.
When Zhou Yan opened the door, Tao Rukun poured the lighter oil contained in the Sprite bottle on her head and ignited it.
Zhou Yan's scream resounded throughout the residential building, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt and burnt skin.
After seven days and seven nights of rescue, she exchanged her life for a burn of 30% of the skin and the cost of an ear, but the scars that could never heal and rumors surrounding her will never be finished.
In the past nine years, Zhou Yan has undergone countless skin graft repair surgeries, and the brown scars like branches are still crawling on her face and hands in a mess.
In order to avoid other people's gaze, she has to take a walk every day for skin relaxation training, and she will only dare to go out at night in the evening.
But compared to these, what made her feel more powerless to resist was the various malicious speculations and different treatments towards her over the past nine years.
She once mustered up the courage to participate in the job search, but when she saw her, there was no need to say the interview result.
In the speculation and discussion of the case that year on the Internet, many people still regard her as a victim of failure to court.
searched for "Zhou Yan" on major websites, and the results that popped up are often malicious speculations and fantasies about her.
There are still various rumors and sluts humiliating
No one cares about the truth of the matter, because in the eyes of the public, emotional disputes are the most reasonable motivation for disfigurement cases.
Even if the victims who were reborn from the fire can come out bravely, their second half of their lives will still be locked in humiliation with the sluts.
As the murderer of this case, Tao Rukun will also be released from prison this year, October 17, 2021. His inmates said that he is like a "little bully" in of the juvenile custody office, and hardly mentions Zhou Yan's incident.
But we don’t know whether he will hate Zhou Yan again because of his life in prison. Zhou Yan’s personal safety is also unknown. He is like a time bomb, and no one knows what he will do next.
and Zhou Yan's every move will be over-interpreted. Today, Tao Rukun has disappeared from people's public opinion.
Walking on the street, no one will recognize him as the initiator of the disfigurement case.On the Internet, he was also perfectly invisible in a discussion of the "Victim Crime Theory" .
Like Zhou Yan, women become victims of disfigurement cases every year in my country. Without exception, in the analysis of cases, and comments, they have become targets for "standing on two boats" and "restless" in the mouths of some onlookers.
and this is also the original intention of the suspect.
The best way to kill a woman is to destroy her reputation and face.
Time will only heal the scars on the body, but bad public opinion and the difficulties and courage encountered by reintegration are difficult for time to heal.
This is also the most vicious intention of revenge for the suspect who picked up sulfuric acid.
