Husband Cuts Off Wife's Hand For Adultery

By


Jacob Nwachukwu from Abala in Obingwa Local Government Area of Abia State, reportedly cut off his wife’s left hand over allegation of adultery.
Narrating how it all happened, a neighbour who spoke to VANGUARD anonymously said, the couple had lived in the city for years before the husband lost his job and had to relocate to the village, leaving his wife, a trader, in the city.

''The couple had always quarreled any time the man visited his wife in the city, to the extent that all the tenants are aware and intervened in their quarrels'', the neighbour said.
On the day he chopped off her hand, the couple had their usual quarrel. Mr Nwachukwu then brought out a machete, cut off the wife’s hand and left with it to the village, while neighbours rushed her to the hospital. It was gathered that Mr. Nwachukwu’s intention was to kill his wife with the machete but missed the target as the woman was said to have used the severed hand to defend herself.
Nwachikwu's wife, Mrs Nwadiokeonu Nwachukwu, is now at a hospital in Aba while her suspected lover is on the run. The Abia state police command is currently investigating the incident.
