London: Taking the law in her own hands, a Spanish mother set afire a man who raped her teenaged daughter and allegedly taunted her about the assault, a report here said today.

The rapist Antonio Cosme Velasco Soriano, who later succumbed to injuries, had been sent to jail for nine years in 1998, but was let out on a three-day pass and returned to his home town of Benejuzar, 50 km south of Alicante, on the Costa Blanca.

While there, he passed his victim's mother in the street and allegedly taunted her about the attack. He is said to have called out: "How's your daughter?" before heading into a crowded bar, The Sunday Telegraph reported today.

Shortly after, the woman walked into the bar, poured a bottle of petrol over Soriano and lit a match. She watched as the flames engulfed him, before walking out.

The woman fled to Alicante, where she was arrested the same evening. When she appeared in court the next day in the town of Orihuela, she was cheered and clapped by a crowd, who shouted "Bravo!" and "Well done!" the newspaper reported.

A judge ordered her to be held in prison and undergo psychiatric tests, provoking anger from friends and neighbours, who have set up a petition calling for her release.

Soriano suffered 60 per cent burns in the attack on June 13 and later succumbed to injuries

that made me feel sick

shame she's paying with her freedom, she did just what was right

I think it would have been much better if she just shot him through the head.At least he would have been dead then.

he is dead now too, but it was a bit more dramatic and painful for him than an easy bullet.

true,but speaking personaly i would rather see someone shot than be burnt to dead . i'm just thinking of the people that had to watch it

might teach the people not to rape 13 year old girls.

(oh, and I don't think her intent was to kill)

No, she didn't do what was right. Can't say I feel sorry for the son of a bitch that raped her daughter or that I don't understand it what she's done, but I also think it's a crime which she should be punished for.

Totaly agree ! eye for an eye!
For once you might agree with me on this one
