EN: to tear into pieces; to shred
This isn't just a simple tear. This is a "I'm so done with this" level of destruction. It's what you do to the evidence, the photo of your ex, or the 15th draft of your thesis that your adviser rejected. It’s tearing, but with passion and a little bit of rage.
The repetition of "punit" indicates a more intense or thorough action of tearing.
