Angry hubby hammers nail into wife's forehead
A MAN hammered a nail into his wife’s forehead after learning that she was having an affair with a neighbour, Tamil Nesan reported.
The victim was rushed to a nearby hospital in a village in South-East Delhi, where her condition was reported to be serious.
The report said the man had an argument with his wife over the alleged affair earlier. He then tied her hands and nailed her forehead.
Their children, who were sleeping, were awakened by their mother’s screams and sought help from their neighbours, who then sent the woman to the hospital.
The husband has been arrested for attempted murder.
> Malaysia Nanban reported the acquittal of three youths accused of murder after the victim was found alive.
Sessions court Judge P.C. Bavaskar in his judgment found Ranjeet Thotange, 25, Atul Kanoje, 24, and Mahesh Korat, 21, not guilty after finding that the police had arrested them in haste and the “victim’s” father had mistakenly identified the body of a young girl as his daughter.
The girl, who had run away from home, returned about six months after she was reported missing.
Police had arrested the three after the victim’s father lodged a report that she was last seen with them shortly before her disappearance.
