Woman bites husband's penis off for cheating

Police in Uganda are holding a 25-year-old woman who bit off her husband`s penis in a domestic brawl, and she now faces charges of assault, resulting into grievous bodily harm.

Margaret Apio, a mother of two, bit off the penis of her husband, Richard Okwii, after accusing him of cheating on her. Okwii is presently under intensive care at the referral hospital of Mulago, north of Kampala.

Divisional Police Commander, Amos Gumisiriza confirmed the incidence, and said Apio will be arraigned in court on next week Monday. "She (Apio) said it was a way of teaching her (Okwii) husband a lesson after exhausting peaceful means to stop him from cheating on her," Gumisiriza quoted the defendant Friday.

"She timed Okwii when he was very drunk (before committing the act). It was a pre-mediated assault," the police chief suggested.

Meanwhile a senior surgeon at Mulago hospital was quoted as saying that Okwi`s penis could be surgically re-attached if it was quickly recovered. Article here.
