On being denied sex, an infuriated wife in Ahmedabad beat her husband to death with a stick. Here are four other incidents where people lost their lives for turning down sex.
After what she did on a fateful afternoon in November 2013, a session court in Ahmedabad on Monday sentenced a 54-year-old woman to life imprisonment for murdering her husband after he refused to have sex with her.
A report on TOI says the convict, VimlaVaghela, was alone with her husband Narsinh at their home in Sardarnagar when she lost her cool over being turned down between the sheets.
On being denied sex, an infuriated Vaghela started beating her husband on his head with a stick. It is said she “doubted her husband’s fidelity and accused him of having an extra-marital relationship.”
Narsinh suffered multiple injuries from this attack, which led to his death.
Along with life imprisonment, Vaghela has also been fined Rs 2,000, which on failure of payment will earn her another six months of imprisonment.
Killed over sex
1. Last month, a 40-year-old man in Mathura was arrested for allegedly killing his 24-year-old wife after she refused to have sex with him.
During interrogation, he reportedly told the police that his wife never allowed him to have any physical relations with her, which angered him.
2. In May, a 27-year-old Italian man set his ex-girlfriend on fire for refusing him oral sex. According to police, the accused followed her to a dark road, where he forced her car off the road and confronted her.
After failing to force himself on her, he poured alcohol over her and her car and torched the car. When she tried to escape, he chased her down and set her ablaze too.
3. In 2015, a 48-year-old woman in Africa axed her husband to death after he refused her sexual advance.
After much arguing, the husband went to sleep in the bedroom, while the wife dozed off in the kitchen. Upon waking up late that night, she took an ax and hacked her sleeping husband to death.
4. In 2014, a 45-year-old man in Bihar was reported to have hacked his 19-year-old married daughter with a fodder cutter after she refused to have sex with him.
The son-in-law logded a complaint saying the accused had barged into their room at night and threw him out, after which he tried to force himself on his daughter. When she resisted, he hacked her to death.
