Internet Petition to Limit Sales of Acid to Prevent Attacks

Last week Mike put up several articles commenting on the recent spate of acid attacks, one of which was the horrific assault on Resham Khan and her cousin when they were out driving. Mike asked how it was that the acid used in the attacks was so easily available.

Yesterday I got a message from Change.org stating that they had a new petition launched by Sarmad Ismail, which he intends to deliver to Amber Rudd. Mr. Ismail wishes to limit sales of acid, so that they are only available to those, who hold a license. To obtain one of these, the purchaser should have to go through background checks and be entered into a police database.

I’ve signed the petition. If you want to sign it too, it’s athttps://www.change.org/p/uk-parliament-prohibit-the-purchase-of-acid-to-those-without-a-licence?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=&utm_source=113407&j=113407&sfmc_sub=269081008&l=32_HTML&u=22259682&mid=7259809&jb=5753
