‘Leave your wife or else’: Mother of 2 invites lover for New Year sweets, slashes his private parts

MUMBAI: Vakola police have booked a 25-year-old mother of two for allegedly slashing her lover's private parts with a sharp weapon after he refused to leave his wife and marry her. The incident took place after the New Year celebrations at her Santacruz residence in the wee hours of Thursday.

The 42-year-old victim is the brother of the accused's sister-in-law and they have been in an extramarital affair for seven years, said police. The woman, who has two children aged four and seven, is on the run.




The victim was initially rushed to the nearby V N Desai Hospital, and later referred to Sion Hospital where he was immediately taken for surgery. "Our urology and general surgery teams operated on him soon after he was brought to hospital. He is recovering right now,'' said Sion Hospital dean Dr Pramod Ingale.

Police said the accused had wanted to marry the victim, but he refused to leave his wife and children. When his wife found out about their relationship, she started quarrelling with him. In his police complaint, the victim said that he then asked the accused to "understand the situation". The accused then left for her hometown in Bihar, but returned a month later, on Dec 19.

On Dec 24, the victim once again "tried to make her understand the siutation" as both had children and families, he told the police.

Around 1.30am on Jan 1, the accused invited him to her residence "to have sweets" to celebrate the New Year. "When the victim tried to leave, she allegedly used a sharp object to slash his private parts even while her two children were sleeping in the room," said a police officer.

The victim, who was bleeding profusely, managed to escape and alerted his son and brother who rushed him to V N Desai Hospital. "Even when she was in Bihar, she would threaten him over the phone,'' said the officer.

Police have formed a team to nab the accused, who has been booked under the relevant provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for causing grievous hurt by dangerous means and criminal intimidation.
