Hi, I’m Pakistani, fluent in urdu and punjabi and I really don’t understand the point you’re trying to make regarding the translation being off. I can’t think of a single phrase that Chaudary might’ve used that would be an incorrect translation of what he tweeted. Also if he is a member of the upper class and lives in…

Pakistani woman here, I was born there, speak urdu and punjabi fluently and I don’t understand what point Jessamina is trying to make.

Jesus, seriously. He fucking ruined her life. I can’t fathom how a teenaged girl could ever recover from having this done to her. Fuck him. May he never have another peaceful moment in his pathetic life. Fuck him. Fuck. Him. Fuck him. Fuck him. Fuck him. Fuck him. Fuck him. Fuck him. Fuck him. Fuck him. Fuck him. Fuck…

Syracuse.com reports that the man wept in court, telling the judge, “I’m giving away many years of my life.”

If I were this girl’s mother I would be seriously tempted to give up years of my life in prison just to brutally murder this man.
