Friend's niece has gone missing

[Subotan]

He killed a poor innocent girl who had nothing to do with him. Coin for coin revenge is suitable in this case no matter what you say.

And what if the wrong guy was picked up? Torture itself is a moral abomination, just as these crimes are, and the possibility of doing what you are advocating to an innocent man is far too high for such a severe punishment to be justifiable.

The state and the justice system are meant to punish people like this. How can state justifiably say "What this man did was wrong", if we resort to his own methods to punish him?

I know what I'm saying is unpopular, but I do not care. Populist baying for blood is wrong and akin to lynch mobs, and something that I am just as strongly opposed to as the sick crimes of this individual.

EDIT: Because torture will magically turn the clock back? Torturing him will not make that neighbourhood a safer place.
