A man had to have his testicles reattached after his girlfriend bit them off his body after an argument when she returned late home from church.
The eye-watering attack happened in Botswana, where the victim, 33, required emergency services to sew his privates back on. The couple were said to have fallen out after the 32-year-old woman arrived home a day late from church.
Officers arrested her in Samuchima, Botswana, after they were tipped off by medics treating the man in hospital.
Shakawe Police Commander Superintendent Goitsemodimo Molapisi said she would be brought before court when paperwork on her lover’s medical condition was finished.
He said:
‘Currently she is facing a grievous harm charge and the doctor’s report will determine the final charge. It can be lesser or remain as it is.’
The man is recovering after an operation to reattach his testicles at Gumare Primary Hospital. A senior policeman, who wished to remain anonymous, said:
‘They exchanged harsh words with the man demanding to know where she had been.
‘She tore and left the testicles hanging.
‘He is very lucky because she nearly cut them off from the body.’
