A 46 years old Uganda peasant farmer had to be rushed to the hospital, after having his penis chopped off by his drunk wife on June 30th.
The man identified as Moses Okot, had on the faithful day denied his wife identified as Beatrice Acen her conjugal rights as a punishment for heavy drinking. Beatrice returned home drunk at 10pm on the said day and proceeded to demand sex from her husband,
Mr Okot said that he had returned home from hunting during the day, eaten and gone to sleep when his wife attacked him.
The victim believes that his wife resorted to this drastic measure due to his longstanding method of punishing her for her ‘alcoholism.’
He said ‘As a man, I would no longer tolerate such, so I decided to deny her sex with hope that she would reform.’
According to the chairman of the village where the couple lived, this is not the first time she has attacked her husband. He said: “Last year, she broke this man’s collar bone during a domestic fight and ran away.”
He added that domestic violence is rife in the village with the women drinking as much as the men.
Mr Okot was taken to the local police station to file a complaint against his wife before being rushed to Apac main hospital where he is now receiving medical treatment.
