Women chopped off penis of man who turned down sex

Four women have chopped the penis off a man after he refused to have sex with them in western India.

Parkeet Manjhi, a migrant labourer, has been admitted in a hospital in Mumbai and doctors have had it reattached.

But they are not yet sure whether the organ will ever again be functional.

Mr Manjhi told police: “I was going to the toilet. A girl called out to me and then other girls came out from behind the bushes.

“They asked me to have sex with them, but when I refused one of them pounced on me and then the others cut it off and I fainted,.”

Police say this is the third such incident in two years where women in Uran region have attacked men and cut off their penis.
