Bangladesh woman takes attacker's penis to cop

    A 40-year-old Bangladeshi woman cut off a man's penis during an alleged attempted rape and took it to a police station as evidence, police in a remote part of Bangladesh said on Monday. The woman, a married mother of three, was attacked while she was sleeping in her shanty in Jhalakathi district, so
    me 200 kilometres (120 miles) south of Dhaka, on Saturday night, officers said.

    "As he tried to rape her, the lady cut his penis off with a knife. She then wrapped up the penis in a piece of polythene and brought it to the Jhalakathi police station as evidence of the crime," police chief Abul Khaer said.

    The woman has filed a case accusing the man -- who is also 40 and a married father of five -- of attempted rape, saying that he had been harassing her for six months.

    The severed penis has been kept at the police station and the rape suspect was undergoing treatment in hospital.

    "We shall arrest him once his condition gets better," Khaer added.

    If her account is accurate, then I don't have the slightest bit of sympathy for this man. However, the article doesn't have much detail, and I found a slightly different one on BBC. It has the same story, but adds that the man is now claiming:

    I wonder if he had reported the incident, it sounds like authorities went to him after the attempted rape was reported. As if, he didn't initiate going to them. I mean, if your penis is cut off -- I'm sure that would be a pretty big deal. Wouldn't you be calling someone, going to the hospital, reporting to the police, "Hey, this woman just cut off my penis!" But, the article doesn't say exactly how it all happened. Also, it says the woman was married, and that he had been harassing her for the past six months. I wonder what the harrassment consisted of, and whether she had spoken to her husband, or complained to anyone, if there were any witnesses - so, if it ends up being a case where there is little else to support the claims on either side, perhaps that aspect will influence the verdict.I suppose the courts will sort it out.

    Yeah i agree with you. The article doesn't have much details and the story sounds half baked. Someone isn't saying the truth.

    That sucks, I mean a penis is useful, not only for peeing, but also to get free satisfaction now and then. 40 years old is not old enough to lose your penis!

    Great story. Women should do like that Bangla lady. It is the right punishment for those who even attempt to rape women.
