In an incident of diabolical proportions, a Nepali national, suspecting his wife’s fidelity, allegedly cut two holes and \u2018locked’ up her private parts after brutally assaulting her, officials of the Wakad Police Station in Pimpri-Chinchwad near Pune said on Friday.<\/p>\n
The accused Upendra Hudake, 30, has been arrested, while his 28-year-old wife has undergone emergency surgery in a local hospital where her condition is now described as \u2018stable.’<\/p>\n
Investigating Officer Balaji Mete of Wakad Police Station told IANS, \u201cThe couple hails from a village in Nepal. They had come to Pune in early-May to look for employment and were living with Upendra Hudake’s sister and her family near Wakad.\u201d<\/p>\n
The horrific incident occurred on the night of May 11, when Upendra Hudake came home in a heavily drunken state and abused and assaulted his wife.<\/p>\n
Upendra Hudake threatened her with a kitchen knife and accused her of being unfaithful to him, which she denied.<\/p>\n
Not believing her, Upendra Hudake continued to beat and kick her, terrifying her with the knife, and tied her up with a stole on the floor as she lay pleading with him to stop.<\/p>\n
Continuing his chilling assault Upendra Hudake took a sharp blade, cut two holes on both sides of her genitals, put iron screws and affixed a small brass lock on it, as the helpless woman lay bleeding and screaming for help. He even threw away the key of the lock.<\/p>\n
Hearing the commotion, a neighbour Lalit Parihar, a migrant labourer, rushed to the house where he saw the badly injured and profusely bleeding woman lying writhing on the floor in pain.<\/p>\n
He called for help and several people from the vicinity, including some other Nepalis living there, reached Upendra Hudake’s home and they shifted her to a nearby hospital in a semi-conscious state, said the IO.<\/p>\n
There, she underwent an emergency surgery to remove the iron screws and lock, and stitch the deep wounds.<\/p>\n
IO Mete said that five days later on Thursday, when she was in a better condition, the woman took courage and lodged a complaint against her husband at the Wakad Police Station.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe took immediate cognisance of the brutal crime and arrested the accused Hudake. He was produced before a Wakad Court which has given him two weeks’ magisterial custody,\u201d said Mete.<\/p>\n
Mete added that Upendra Hudake has been charged under IPC Section 323, 506(2) and others, and further investigations are ongoing in the matter.<\/p>\n
