She allegedly threatened him of dire consequences if he did not give in to the demand, a senior police officer said. Enraged at his refusal, the accused chopped off the man’s genitals with a kitchen knife, the officer said.
The victim said the woman’s brother and sister-in-law were present at the house when the incident took place. He alleged that they did nothing to stop the woman from attacking him.
After the attack, Ravi rushed out of the house shouting for help. Some neighbours informed the police and rushed him to hospital. After a surgery, he was referred to the Jaipur Golden Hospital.
Police said the woman and her family are absconding, adding that they have formed teams to nab her. The victim lives with his family in Mangolpuri, a few blocks away from the woman’s house.
