A Colombian wife has been accused of pouring boiling water onto her husband’s genitals as he slept after finding out he had been unfaithful.
Yolivel Lopez allegedly tipped the liquid on top of Nefer Netan’s private parts after receiving a call from his mistress saying they had just had sex.
El Meridiano reports that Netan arrived at his home in the early hours of Tuesday morning after saying he had been out for a few drinks with friends.
Lopez allowed him to fall sleep, before going to the kitchen where she filled a pot with water and placed it on the stove to heat up.
Once boiled, she carried the pot into the bedroom and tipped it on to her husband’s genitals.
Neighbours in the town of Martinez, near Cerete in north-east Colombia, said Netan’s screams ‘pierced the night sky’ and he was taken to hospital for treatment.
But, reports El Meridiano, doctors said his genitals was ‘utterly destroyed’ in the incident.
Locals say Lopez has not been seen since the alleged attack.
