Teenagers or then should I say Delhi's teenagers seem well on their way towards becoming a law unto themselves what with their remarkable propensity to hurl deadly and life threatening chemicals at others of their own ilk if their prophecies of doom go unheeded.........
In an incident right out of Ripley's "Believe it or Not", a 11 year old teenager suffered severe burns on his face and neck area after bearing the brunt of an unprovoked chemical attack on him by his friend's elder brother also a minor in East Delhi's Karaval Nagar area.........
According to sources in the know of things, the two seemingly inseparable friends had a minor tiff following which the accused had threatened the 11 year old victim with dire consequences if he saw him playing with his younger brother henceforth; the assailant has since been detained and send to a juvenile correctional facility........
This horrendous incident was reported from Gali Number 2 of the national capital's Karaval Nagar area late on Sunday evening when Upendra (the victim) was playing with a group of friends right opposite his house and got into some kind of argument or disagreement with one of them........
Upendra subsequently also got into an argument with his friend's elder brother (the accused) and allegedly pushed him away when the accused tried to hold him by his collar, enraged by Upendra's actions, the 14 year old picked up a bottle containing a chemical mostly used as a bleaching agent on Upendra's persona...........
The bottle broke on coming into contact with Upoendra's face and the chemical contained within the same spread all over Upendra's face and neck leading to the charring of his face and neck area; Upendra was rushed to an adjoining hospital by his deeply concerned family members and the doctors attending on him have expressed latent fears of him losing his vision for life if the treatments being given to him do not yield the desired or anticipated results.........
His assailant who was detained from his house within a mere matter of minutes has since been sent to a juvenile correctional facility (home) and will soon be enjoying freedom and a blissful life within a three year time frame as that is the maximum sentencing allowed under the prevalent or existing laws in this regard..........
And all this while his victim might end up losing his eyesight as well as remaining disfigured for the rest of his natural life thanks to a juvenile offender who will be allowed to go scot free after serving his meted out sentence instead of being reduced to a life of purgatory and repentance that he so richly deserves...........
