A
40-year-old Bangladesh woman, Monju Begum, has reportedly cut off the
penis of a man who was allegedly trying to rape her, and then took it to
police as evidence.
According to police, Mozammel Haq Mazi, the suspect, who is also
Begum’s neighbor, forced his way into her shanty and began sexually
assaulting her. Investigators say Begum stopped the attack by cutting
off his penis. She then placed the evidence into a polythene bag and
took it into police as proof that Mazi had attempted to rape her.
Begum, a married mother of three, told the police that Mazi had been
harassing her for the past six months. He is reportedly also married and
has five children.
Police spokesperson, Abul Khaer, said “It is quite an unusual
incident. As far as I am aware, this is the first time that a woman has
brought a severed penis to the police station as evidence… We will
arrest him once his condition gets better,” said Khaer.
Meanwhile, Mazi denied the allegations, telling investigators that
the two were having an affair. In Mazi’s words “Recently she suggested
that both of us can go settle down in Dhaka… I refused and told her that
I cannot leave my wife and children, so she took revenge on me.”
Doctors say the man’s pénis will not be re-attached.
