COLOMBIA: Acid Attack Beauty Queen Calls For Boycott Of Contest.
COLOMBIA REPORTS/ Beauty contestant Maria Fernanda Nuñez, who was attacked with acid last week, believes that her home department, Norte de Santander, should not enter this year's Miss Colombia competition. Nuñez said "It is time to set a precedent and teach a lesson to the violent ones ... so that my pain and what I am going through may become a lesson." Nunez says she is recovering well from the attack and that she is only concerned about a cornea burned by the acid.
